In Albert Einstein’s 1931 collection of essays titled Cosmic Religion: With Other Opinions and Aphorisms, he argued that the apparent dualities of science and religion, knowledge and imagination, and logic and wonder are in fact compatible, and together they enrich the human experience.
Einstein spoke frequently about imagination, which he believed was a crucial component of scientific progress. "Logic will get you from A to B," he said. "Imagination will take you everywhere."
The famed physicist reminds us that it is imagination that gives wings to knowledge, by pointing the way to new possibilities.
