• Creativity or Knowledge, That is the question!... by mostafa64
  Due to all-encompassing nature of this statement, I find it impossible to issue a simple yes or no answer to its underlying question.

Despite these facts, in order to go beyond the borders of knowledge there is no way rather than resorting to the realm of creativity and imagination. Read more...

I must profess, however, that I am ambivalent towards this subject, torn between my desire to ascribe this value to imagination and, on the other hand, my appreciation of the knowledge bases which govern it. In the end, though, I must err on the side of caution, known as knowledge, as the more important factor. Read more...
