网上广为流传,牛顿说:
“没有大胆猜测,就没有重大发现。No great discovery was ever made without a bold guess.”
到底出自何处?原文是什么?

第 153 页(科学出版社,1979)
牛顿:
没有大胆的猜测就作不出伟大的发现。
休厄尔(William Whewell):
若无某种大胆放肆的猜测,一般是作不出知识的进展的。
高斯:
我有了结果,但还不知道该怎样去得到它。

[1] Albert Einstein Quote, “Imagination is more important than knowledge”
https://todayinsci.com/E/Einstein_Albert/EinsteinAlbert-ImaginationQuote800px.htm
“I am enough of the artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”
George Sylvester Viereck, 'What Life Means to Einstein', Saturday Evening Post (26 Oct 1929), 117. Reprinted in Viereck, Glimpses of the Great (1930), 447.
我是在自己的想象上自由涂画的艺术家。想象力比知识更重要。知识是有限的,而想象力却包含整个世界。
Einstein on Cosmic Religion and Other Opinions and Aphorisms (1931, 2012), 97.
“I believe in intuition and inspiration. … At times I feel certain I am right while not knowing the reason. When the eclipse of 1919 confirmed my intuition, I was not in the least surprised. In fact, I would have been astonished had it turned out otherwise. 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.”
想象力比知识更重要。这是因为知识是有限的,而想象力却包含整个世界:促进进步,催生进化。严格地说,想象力是科学研究中一个实际存在的因素。

[2] Albert Einstein, “The formulation of a problem is often far more essential than its solution”
https://todayinsci.com/E/Einstein_Albert/EinsteinAlbert-ProblemQuote500px.htm
“The formulation of a problem is often more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skill. To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle requires creative imagination and marks real advances in science.”
Text by Webmaster, with quote from co-authors Albert Einstein and Léopold Infeld, Evolution of Physics (1938, 1966), 92.
提出一个问题往往比解决一个问题更重要,因为解决问题也许仅能是一个数学上或实验室上的技能而已。而提出新的问题、新的可能性,从新的角度去看旧的问题,都需要有创造性的想象力,而且标志着科学的真正进步。
