Daniel Kahneman, who with Amos Tversky spent years together researching how people make decisions, came to this conclusion about the creative process of researchers:
The way the creative process works is that you first say something and later, sometimes years later, you understand what you said. And in our case it was foreshortened. I would say something and Amos understood it. It still gives me goose bumps.
