Motivational Quotes

Imagination

To me this world is all one continued vision of fancy or imagination, and I feel flattered when I am told so. What is it sets Homer, Virgil and Milton in so high a rank of art? Why is the Bible more entertaining and instructive than any other book? Is it not because they are addressed to the imagination, which is spiritual sensation, and but immediately to the understanding or reason?
- Blake, William
Imagination Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Imagination

1.
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

2.
Let your imagination release your imprisoned possibilities.
Schuller, Robert H.

3.
Capability means imagination...
Hill, Napoleon

4.
If you want a quality, act as if you already had it. Try the as if technique.
James, William

5.
The way we imagine ourselves to appear to another person is an essential element in our conception of ourselves. In other words, I am not what I think I am, and I am not what you think I am. I am what I think you think I am.
Bierstedt, Robert

6.
Imagination is the voice of daring. If there is anything Godlike about God it is that. He dared to imagine everything.
Miller, Henry

7.
By going over your day in imagination before you begin it, you can begin acting successfully at any moment.
Brande, Dorothea

8.
Imagination... its limits are only those of the mind itself.
Serling, Rod

9.
The mind must see visual achievement of the purpose before action is initiated.
Douglas, Mack R.

10.
Act as if you have already achieved your goal and it is yours.
Anthony, Dr. Robert

11.
All the breaks you need in life wait within your imagination, Imagination is the workshop of your mind, capable of turning mind energy into accomplishment and wealth.
Hill, Napoleon

12.
A man may imagine things that are false, but he can only understand things that are true, for if the things be false, the apprehension of them is not understanding.
Newton, Sir Isaac

13.
The most dire disaster in love is the death of imagination.
Meredith, George

14.
I do not know how to distinguish between our waking life and a dream. Are we not always living the life that we imagine we are?
Thoreau, Henry David

15.
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

16.
Man is an imagining being.
Bachelard, Gaston

17.
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.
Mencken, H. L.

18.
There is nothing more dreadful than imagination without taste.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

19.
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

20.
People can die of mere imagination.
Chaucer, Geoffrey

21.
Anything one man can imagine, other men can make real.
Verne, Jules

22.
Visualize this thing that you want, see it, feel it, believe in it. Make your mental blue print, and begin to build.
Collier, Robert

23.
Nevertheless, the consuming hunger of the uncritical mind for what it imagines to be certainty or finality impels it to feast upon shadows in the prevailing famine of substance.
Bell, E. T.

24.
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

25.
The most evident difference springs from the important part which is played in man by a relatively strong power of imagination and by the capacity to think, aided as it is by language and other symbolically devices.
Einstein, Albert

26.
Often it is just lack of imagination that keeps a man from suffering very much.
Proust, Marcel

27.
Anyone who thinks the sky is the limit, has limited imagination.

28.
Image creates desire. You will what you imagine.
Gallimore, J. G.

29.
Without this playing with fantasy no creative work has ever yet come to birth. The debt we owe to the play of the imagination is incalculable.
Jung, Carl

30.
The opportunities of man are limited only by his imagination. But so few have imagination that there are ten thousand fiddlers to one composer.
Kettering, Charles F.

31.
Science does not know its debt to imagination.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

32.
Imagination and fiction make up more than three quarters of our life.
Weil, Simone

33.
Imagination is always the fabric of social life and the dynamic of history. The influence of real needs and compulsions, of real interests and materials, is indirect because the crowd is never conscious of it.
Weil, Simone

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.
There are no days in life so memorable as those which vibrate to some stroke of the imagination.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

36.
There is nothing more frightful than imagination without taste.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

37.
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

38.
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

39.
Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.
Einstein, Albert

40.
When you stop having dreams and ideals -- well, you might as well stop altogether.
Anderson, Marian

41.
To regard the imagination as metaphysics is to think of it as part of life, and to think of it as part of life is to realize the extent of artifice. We live in the mind.
Stevens, Wallace

42.
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

43.
Imagination is not only the uniquely human capacity to envision that which is not, and, therefore, the foundation of all invention and innovation. In its arguably most transformative and relevetory capacity, it is the power that enables us to empathize with humans whose experiences we have never shared.
J.K. Rowling

44.
You have all the reason in the world to achieve your grandest dreams. Imagination plus innovation equals realization.
Waitley, Denis

45.
The great successful men of the world have used their imaginations... they think ahead and create their mental picture, and the go to work materializing that picture in all its details, filling in here, adding a little there, altering this a bit and that a bit, but steadily building -- steadily building.
Collier, Robert

46.
Imagination is a poor matter when it has to part company with understanding.
Carlyle, Thomas

47.
You cannot depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus.
Mark Twain

48.
Imagination is the highest kite one can fly.
Bacall, Lauren

49.
Imagination is more important than knowledge...
Albert Einstein

50.
The human imagination... has great difficulty in living strictly within the confines of a materialist practice or philosophy. It dreams, like a dog in its basket, of hares in the open.
Berger, John
