Weekly Quote: where do ideas come from?

I find going to bed and pulling my imagination over my head often means waking up with a solution to a design problem. That state of limbo, the time between sleeping and waking, seems to allow ideas to somehow outflank the sentinels of common sense. That’s when they can float to the surface. I find ideas often show up in the shower, or while I’m contemplating marmalade and toast and breakfast.

I get stuck all the time and I find myself going to bed with all my problems. There are times when it keeps me up and others when I can make out a solution to those problems. I prefer having puzzles, riddles, or art functionality problems when i go to bed because then I won't have to dwell on other things that are meaningless.
So,basically my ideas usually just come to me like when I'm sleeping or doing everyday things.
