Imagine

Famous quotes containing the word imagine:

“What a dissimilarity we see in walking, swimming, and flying. And yet it is one and the same motion: it is just that the load- bearing capacity of the earth differs from that of the water, and that that of the water differs from that of the air! Thus we should also learn to fly as thinkers—and not imagine that we are thereby becoming idle dreamers!”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“Do I imagine he no longer trembles
When I come close to him?
He seems no longer to tremble.”
—Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

“One can hardly imagine a more healthful employment, or one more favorable to contemplation and the observation of nature.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
