Robert Greene, The Dimensional Mind

“Well, highly creative people do not need this extra bit of stimulation. They have managed to retain or rediscover that fluid original mind of the child, and wedded it to all of this knowledge and experience, giving them what I call The Dimensional Mind. A mind capable of seeing more dimensions of the visible and invisible world around us.

“High-level creativity requires these two elements.

“If you have an open and fluid mind, but not enough knowledge and experience, you will basically remain on the level of a child. If you have a lot of knowledge and experience, but your mind is tight and unwilling to roam, you will come up with the same conventional responses, the same A, B, and C, like Pasteur’s colleagues.”
