Daydreaming, 2

Do “smart” people daydream?

It would appear so. Einstein is often quoted about his belief in daydreaming. For example, he lived his daydreams in music. Many of his ideas reportedly came from daydreaming or his “thought experiences.” I agree that imagination is more important than just knowing a bunch of facts. As Einstein pointed out, logic can get you from point A to point B, while imagination will take you everywhere. There are indications that other personages appear to have similar perspectives.

 Deepak Chopra: Daydream, imagine, and reflect. It’s the source of infinite creativity.

 Neil Gaiman: You get ideas from daydreaming . . .The only difference between writers and other people is we notice when we're doing it.
