“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.” ~Einstein

&ldquo;Anyway, I keep picturing all these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody&#039;s around - nobody big, I mean - except me. And I&#039;m standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff - I mean if they&#039;re running and they don&#039;t look where they&#039;re going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That&#039;s all I do all day. I&#039;d just be the catcher in the rye and all. I know it&#039;s crazy, but that&#039;s the only thing I&#039;d really like to be.&rdquo; <br /> ― J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye
