Imagination Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Imagination

1.
The imaginations which people have of one another are the solid facts of society.
Cooley, Charles Horton

2.
The Chinese pianist Liu Chi Kung was imprisoned for seven years during the Cultural Revolution, during which time he had no access to a piano. When he returned to giving concerts again after he was released, his playing was better than ever. Asked how this was possible since he had not practice for seven years, he replied: I did practice, every day. I rehearsed every piece I had ever played, note by note, in my mind.
Zilbergeld, Bernie

3.
Skill without imagination is craftsmanship and gives us many useful objects such as wickerwork picnic baskets. Imagination without skill gives us modern art.
Tom Stoppard

4.
We live by our imagination, our admiration s, and our sentiments.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

5.
Imagination is the one weapon in the war against reality.
Jules de Gaultier

6.
We do not need magic to transform our world. We carry all the power we need inside ourselves already. We have the power to imagine better.
J.K. Rowling

7.
In that way imagination and intelligence enter into our existence in the part of servants of the primary instincts.
Einstein, Albert

8.
Imagination and fiction make up more than three quarters of our life.
Weil, Simone

9.
People often get their imagination's mixed up with their memories.
Shaw, P.K.

10.
First have being in your mind. Make real in your mind then bring that being into reality. The genius is he who sees what is not yet and causes it to come to be.
Zarlenga, Peter Nivio

11.
Sentiment is the ripened fruit of fantasy.
Belazy, Madame

12.
Begin to imagine what the desirable outcome would be like. Go over these mental pictures and delineate details and refinements. Play them over and over to yourself.
Maltz, Maxwell

13.
There is nothing more dreadful than imagination without taste.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

14.
If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder without any such gift from the fairies, he needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement, and mystery of the world we live in.
Carson, Rachel

15.
The soul without imagination is what an observatory would be without a telescope.
Beecher, Henry Ward

16.
Act as if you have already achieved your goal and it is yours.
Anthony, Dr. Robert

17.
Often it is just lack of imagination that keeps a man from suffering very much.
Proust, Marcel

18.
It is usually the imagination that is wounded first, rather than the heart; it being much more sensitive.
Thoreau, Henry David

19.
Soft focus is an important skill that can effect us metaphorically. In other words, the way we see the future has everything to do with how well we can look up and see the expanded horizon before us.
Kline, Peter

20.
Imagination is the eye of the soul.
Joubert, Joseph

21.
Imagination is not a talent of some people but is the health of everyone.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

22.
It is eminently a weariable faculty, eminently delicate, and incapable of bearing fatigue; so that if we give it too many objects at a time to employ itself upon, or very grand ones for a long time together, it fails under the effort, becomes jaded, exactly as the limbs do by bodily fatigue, and incapable of answering any farther appeal till it has had rest.
Ruskin, John

23.
Great living starts with a picture held in the imagination, of what you would like to do or be.

24.
Imagination is more important than knowledge...
Albert Einstein

25.
If you can imagine it, you can achieve it; if you can dream it, you can become it.
Ward, William A.

26.
The imagination equips us to perceive reality when it is not fully materialized.
Richards, Mary Caroline

27.
For imagination sets the goal picture which our automatic mechanism works on. We act, or fail to act, not because of will, as is so commonly believed, but because of imagination.
Maltz, Maxwell

28.
The imagination is never governed, it is always the ruling and divine power.
Ruskin, John

29.
Your imagination is your preview of life's coming attractions.
Einstein, Albert

30.
An unimaginative person can neither be reverent or kind.
Ruskin, John

31.
See the things you want as already yours. Think of them as yours, as belonging to you, as already in your possession.
Collier, Robert

32.
When you see a thing clearly in your mind, your creative success mechanism within you takes over and does the job much better than you could do it by conscious effort or willpower.
Maltz, Maxwell

33.
Make every thought, every fact, that comes into your mind pay you a profit. Make it work and produce for you. Think of things not as they are but as they might be. Don't merely dream -- but create!
Collier, Robert

34.
The imagination is the spur of delights... all depends upon it, it is the mainspring of everything; now, is it not by means of the imagination one knows joy? Is it not of the imagination that the sharpest pleasures arise?
Sade, Marquis De

35.
Science does not know its debt to imagination.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

36.
My imagination makes me human and makes me a fool; it gives me all the world and exiles me from it.
Guin, Ursula K. Le

37.
The most dire disaster in love is the death of imagination.
Meredith, George

38.
Not our logical faculty, but our imaginative one is king over us. I might say, priest and prophet to lead us to heaven-ward, or magician and wizard to lead us hellward.
Carlyle, Thomas

39.
It is more than likely that the brain itself is, in origin and development, only a sort of great clot of genital fluid held in suspense or reserved. This hypothesis would explain the enormous content of the brain as a maker or presenter of images.
Pound, Ezra

40.
You cannot depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus.
Mark Twain

41.
Before I put a sketch on paper, the whole idea is worked out mentally. In my mind I change the construction, make improvements, and even operate the device. Without ever having drawn a sketch I can give the measurements of all parts to workmen, and when completed all these parts will fit, just as certainly as though I had made the actual drawings. It is immaterial to me whether I run my machine in my mind or test it in my shop. The inventions I have conceived in this way have always worked. In thirty years there has not been a single exception. My first electric motor, the vacuum wireless light, my turbine engine and many other devices have all been developed in exactly this way.
Tesla, Nikola

42.
You have all the reason in the world to achieve your grandest dreams. Imagination plus innovation equals realization.
Waitley, Denis

43.
Some people have just enough imagination to spoil their judgment.
Mallory, Paul

44.
Perhaps in a book review it is not out of place to note that the safety of the state depends on cultivating the imagination.
Vizinczey, Stephen

45.
I never hit a shot, not even in practice, without having a very sharp, in-focus picture of it in my head. First I see the ball where I want it to finish, nice and white and sitting up high on the bright green grass. Then the scene quickly changes, and I see the ball going there: its path, trajectory, and shape, even its behavior on landing. Then there is a sort of fade-out, and the next scene shows me making the kind of swing that will turn the previous images into reality.
Nicklaus, Jack

46.
I noticed an almost universal trait among Super Achievers, and it was what I call Sensory Goal Vision. These people knew what they wanted out of life, and they could sense it multidimensionally before they ever had it. They could not only see it, but also taste it, smell it, and imagine the sounds and emotions associated with it. They pre-lived it before they had it. And the sharp, sensory vision became a powerful driving force in their lives.
Devore, Stephen

47.
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.
Muggeridge, Malcolm

48.
It takes as much imagination to create debt as to create income.
Orr, Leonard

49.
Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine and at last you create what you will.
George Bernard Shaw

50.
There is only one admirable form of the imagination: the imagination that is so intense that it creates a new reality, that it makes things happen.
Sean O'Faolain
