Ken Robinson
Imagination is the source of all human achievement.
Ken Robinson
Very often, organizations are inflexible because there is too little communication between functions they are too segregated.
Ken Robinson

Ken Robinson
My contention is, all kids have tremendous talents. And we squander them, pretty ruthlessly.
Ken Robinson
All children start their school careers with sparkling imaginations, fertile minds, and a willingness to take risks with what they think.
Ken Robinson
Creativity is the process of having original ideas that have value - more often than not, comes about through the interaction of different disciplinary ways of seeing things
Ken Robinson

Ken Robinson
