Quotations
Imagination
The biggest treasure of a human being is his "power of imagination". Instead
of utilizing it for making a discovery or melody or exploring the avenues of
business...we waste it on imaginary worries and finding fictitious Gods to resolve
it.

Don't expect anything original from an echo.
-Anonymous
Every great advance in science has issued from a new audacity of the imagination.
-John Dewey
Sometimes the soul takes pictures of things it has wished for, but never seen.
-Anne Sexton
Some stories are true that never happened.
-Elie Wiesel
A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral.
-Antoine De Saint Exupéry

Imagination is the highest kite one can fly.
-Lauren Bacall
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
-Joseph Joubert
