To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science.–Albert Einstein

Creativity, as has been said, consists largely of rearranging what we know in order to find out what we do not know. Hence, to think creatively, we must be able to look afresh at what we normally take for granted.–George Kneller

If you want something new, you have to stop doing something old.–Peter F. Drucker

The roots of great innovation are never just in the technology itself. They are always in the wider historical context. They require new ways of seeing. As Einstein put it, 'The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.'–David Brooks, New York Times columnist

There's a way to do it better—find it.–Thomas Edison

We've arranged a civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on science and technology.–Carl Sagan

Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity.–General George Patton

...if you think of it [innovation] in terms of the Gold Rush, then you’d be pretty depressed right now because the last nugget of gold would be gone. But the good thing is, with innovation, there isn’t a last nugget. Every new thing creates two new questions and two new opportunities.–Jeff Bezos, founder and CEO, Amazon
