And thank you A-G for exploring the critical process of the imagination --and providing a fuller context of the Einstein quote I 'found' across from the mens room wall when it came time to consider imagination* a few weeks ago: I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world. ;-`
And it follows, the most creative mentality of all is one which intentionally forms imaginings and processes of thought, resorting to neither what we call "matter," nor symbols gained by it.

I haven't the faintest idea of what you have written here. I guess you have demonstrated "The absurdity of thinking in Language".
