A new idea comes suddenly and in a rather intuitive way. But intuition is nothing but the outcome of earlier intellectual experience.

Summary

This quote suggests that a new idea, while appearing sudden and intuitive, is actually the result of previous intellectual experiences. Intuition is seen as a culmination of knowledge and insights gained over time, indicating that our subconscious mind processes and connects information in a way that may not be immediately apparent to our conscious mind. Therefore, the seemingly spontaneous emergence of innovative ideas actually stems from a foundation of prior intellectual exploration and understanding.
