Imagination

• "The true function of logic,... as applied to matters of experience,... is analytic rather than constructive; taken a priori, it shows the possibility of hitherto unsuspected alternatives more often than the impossibility of alternatives which seemed prima facie possible. Thus, while it liberates imagination as to what the world may be, it refuses to legislate as to what the world is."
  • Bertrand Russell: Our Knowledge of the External World

• "The conception of the necessary unit of all that is resolves itself into the poverty of the imagination, and a freer logic emancipates us from the straitwaistcoated benevolent institution, which idealism palms off as the totality of being."
  • Bertrand Russell: Our Knowledge of the External World

• "The only boundaries to our imaginations are the ones we imagine ourselves."
  • J. Kaim, 2004

• "Nothing is more dangerous to reason than the flights of the imagination and nothing has been the occasion of more mistakes among philosophers. Men of bright fancies may in this respect be compared to those angels whom the scripture represents as covering their eyes with their wings."
  • David Hume, "A Treatise of Human Nature", Book 1, Section 4, p.225

• "Imagination is your key to unlock the hidden wonders of our world."
