I don't agree with this; however I would say that the perception of knowledge *can* inhibit imagination. Namely that if we believe things to be absolutely true when there exists even an infinitesimal level of doubt that they actually are, we are limiting our imaginations. The accumulation of knowledge itself will not necessarily limit the imagination of a person, although certain types of people are often too quick to accept certain things as absolute truths. Perhaps it could be said that a reluctance to ask questions is often the sign of a dwindling level of imaginative potency? Not really my specialist subject, though.
