Context: With vertical thinking one may look for different approaches until one finds a promising one. With lateral thinking one goes on generating as many approaches as one can even after one has found a promising one. With vertical thinking one is trying to select the best approach but with lateral thinking one is generating different approaches for the sake of generating them.
[In the Company of the Holy Mother, 124-125]
“Before we can forgive one another, we have to understand one another.”
“Nobody even imagines how well one can lie about the state of one’s own heart.”
