August Derleth Fantasy

Famous quotes containing the words august and/or fantasy:

    I always disliked dogs, those protectors of cowards who lack the courage to fight an assailant themselves.
    —J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)

    Fantasy is a product of thought, Imagination of sensibility. If the thinking, discursive mind turns to speculation, the result is Fantasy; if, however, the sensitive, intuitive mind turns to speculation, the result is Imagination. Fantasy may be visionary, but it is cold and logical. Imagination is sensuous and instinctive. Both have form, but the form of Fantasy is analogous to Exposition, that of Imagination to Narrative.
    Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)
