“An idea is salvation by imagination”

“Violence requires few ideas, but nonviolence requires imagination.”

“The learned ignore the evidence of their senses to preserve the coherence of the ideas of their imagination.”

“Jesus could not have imagined such an idea as Albert Einstein's theory of relativity.”

“For every good idea, expect to have five, ten, twenty wrong or useless ideas. You cannot avoid the bad ideas if you keep your imagination free. There is no spam filter for bad ideas.”

“There is no connection between the political ideas of our educated class and the deep places of the imagination.”

“Imagination and obsession are the keys to getting a good idea. To help your imagination keep your eyes and ears open. Avoid the "not invented here prejudice."”

“I frankly can't wait, because the idea of Bill Clinton back in the White House with nothing to do is something I just can't imagine, I can't imagine the American people can imagine….”

“The ideas of the sun rises from the East and sets on West will stop, including the idea of day and night, will cease to exist except inside our imaginations.”

“I just can’t imagine being in a world and not being fascinated with what ideas are doing to us.”
