想象力比知識更重要 【阿爾伯特·愛因斯坦】_風聞

Imagination Is More Important Than Knowledge

In 1931 the book “Cosmic Religion and Other Opinions and Aphorisms” by Albert Einstein was published. This volume contained the same saying, but the surrounding text was phrased somewhat differently:[[2]](https://quoteinvestigator.com/2013/01/01/einstein-imagination/)

At times I feel certain I am right while not knowing the reason. When the eclipse of 1919 confirmed my intuition, I was not in the least surprised. In fact, I would have been astonished had it turned out otherwise. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

1931年，阿爾伯特·愛因斯坦所著的《宇宙宗教及其他觀點和格言》一書出版了。這一卷包含相同的説法，但周圍的文字措辭略有不同:[2] 有時我覺得自己是對的，但不知道為什麼。當1919年的日食證實了我的直覺時，我一點也不驚訝。事實上，如果結果不是這樣，我會感到驚訝的。想象力比知識更重要。因為知識是有限的，而想象力包含整個世界，刺激進步，孕育進化。嚴格地説，它是科學研究中的一個真正的因素。
