“The gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge.”
Albert Einstein
“When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than any talent for abstract, positive thinking.”
“I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, And that enables you to laugh at life's realities.”
Dr. Seuss
“Love is the exchange of two fantasies and the contact of two skins.”
Chamfort
“Fantasy, abandoned by reason, produces impossible monsters; united with it, she is the mother of the arts and the origin of marvels.”
Goya
“Fantasies are more than substitutes for unpleasant reality; they are also dress rehearsals, plans. All acts performed in the world begin in the imagination.”
Barbara Grizzuti Harrison
“But fantasy kills imagination, pornography is death to art.”
Iris Murdoch
