Imagination it turns out is a great deal like reporting in your own head. Here is a paradox of fiction-writing. You are crafting something from nothing which means in one sense that none of it is true. Yet in the writing and perhaps in the reading some of a character's actions or lines are truer than others.

The conscious process is reflected in the imagination the unconscious process is expressed as karma the generation of actions divorced from thinking and alienated from feeling.

Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions.

One of my favorite things about 'Star Trek' wasn't just the overt banter but the humor in that show about the relationships between the main characters and their reactions to the situations they would face there was a lot of comedy in that show without ever breaking its reality.

From sixteen to twenty all women kept in humor by their hopes and by their attractions appear to be good-natured.

If one seeks to analyze experiences and reactions to the first postwar years I hope one may say without being accused of bias that it is easier for the victor than for the vanquished to advocate peace.

Man wants to live but it is useless to hope that this desire will dictate all his actions.

I believe that we must maintain pride in the knowledge that the actions we take based on our own decisions and choices as individuals link directly to the magnificent challenge of transforming human history.

It's not the sentiments of men which make history but their actions.

Western history has been a history of deed done actions performed and results achieved.
