Hi Emeline,
Sharing quotes is a great idea as it’s an excellent way to share with others, thoughts that resonate with you. But I’d like to suggest you always include the source of the quote since others may not know, as you do, that it is a quote attributed to Albert Einstein. And unless the quote is extremely long, include the entire quote. The entire quote, in this case, defines Einstein’s reasons for his statement and gives insight into his thinking:
I believe in intuition and inspiration. 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.
Albert Einstein – 1930
