Dreams and Imagination

I like too many things and get all confused and hung-up running from one falling star to another til I drop.

Hold fast to dreams/For if dreams die/Life is a broken-winged bird/That cannot fly.

If one is lucky, a solitary fantasy can totally transform one million realities.

There are no rules of architecture for a castle in the clouds.

Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it, we go nowhere.

I doubt that the imagination can be suppressed. If you truly eradicated it in a child, he would grow up to be an eggplant.

The man who has no imagination has no wings.

Imagination offers people consolation for what they cannot be, and humor for what they actually are.

Imagination is a good horse to carry you over the ground—not a flying carpet to set you free from probability.

Imagination is the true magic carpet.

What we need are more people who specialize in the impossible.

The cinema has no boundary; it is a ribbon of dream.

Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance.

Ideas are like rabbits. You get a couple and learn how to handle them, and pretty soon you have a dozen.

People who insist on telling their dreams are among the terrors of the breakfast table.

The worst type of man behaves as badly in his waking life as some men do in their dreams.

The future is a convenient place for dreams.

In the drowsy dark caves of the mind dreams build their nest with fragments dropped from day’s caravan.

Dreams are the true interpreters of our inclinations; but there is art required to sort and understand them.

In bed my real love has always been the sleep that rescued me by allowing me to dream.

Dreams wherein we often see ourselves in masquerade.

The dream is the small hidden door in the deepest and most intimate sanctum of the soul, which opens to that primeval cosmic night that was soul long before there was conscious ego.

You have to have a dream so you can get up in the morning.

Dreams come true; without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have them.
