On imagination
"Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere." The quote stresses the importance of imagination by making a comparison with logic. It recognizes the power of logic on one hand, but on the other hand, it puts the accent on imagination, the engine of social development. Logic is important in certain ways, but it is imagination that is the driving force of human civilization. For example, in the past cell phones were only used for making a call. But later they became similar to the computer and had more and more functions because of great imagination. Indeed, they were produced on the basis of logic, including electron or mechanistic theories, but all the innovation should be more credited to human imagination, without which logic would have no role to play. As a college student, in order to be imaginative, first I would keep learning and accumulating knowledge rather than sit idling. Second, I would stand upon the shoulders of giants, that is to say, I would borrow ideas from great figures all over the world to draw inspiration. With the above two steps combined, I hope I can become imaginative in many ways.
