Childlike Imagination

Famous quotes containing the words childlike and/or imagination:

“Such pure and genuine and childlike love of Nature is hardly to be found in any poet.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“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)
