Imagination
grows by exercise, and contrary to common belief, is more
powerful in the mature than in the young.

We have been
endowed with the capacity and the power to create desirable
pictures within and to find them automatically in the outer
world of our environment.

It is
impossible to imagine the universe run by a wise, just and
omnipotent God, but it is quite easy to imagine it run by a
board of gods. If such a board actually exists it operates
precisely like the board of a corporation that is losing
money.
-- H. L. Mencken
1880-1956, American Editor,

The most dire

Imagination is
the voice of daring. If there is anything Godlike about God
it is that. He dared to imagine everything.

1891-1980, American Author
You must first
clearly see a thing in your mind before you can do it.
-- Alex Morrison
The genius of
Man in our time has gone into jet-propulsion,
atom-splitting, penicillin-curing, etc. There is none over
for works of imagination; of spiritual insight or mystical
enlightenment. I asked for bread and was given a
tranquilizer. It is important to recognize that in our time
man has not written one word, thought one thought, put two
notes or two bricks together, splashed color on to canvas or
concrete into space, in a manner which will be of any
conceivable imaginative interest to posterity.
-- Malcolm Muggeridge
1903-1990, British
Broadcaster
Imagination,
the supreme delight of the immortal and the immature, should
be limited. In order to enjoy life, we should not enjoy it
too much.
-- Vladimir Nabokov
1899-1977, Russian-born
