I've got some gift for languages. You follow your gift. But Latin's not easy.
From Ursula K. Le Guin
I doubt that the imagination can be suppressed. If you truly eradicated it in a child, he would grow up to be an eggplant.
In so far as one denies what is, one is possessed by what is not, the compulsions, the fantasies, the terrors that flock to fill the void.
As great scientists have said and as all children know, it is above all by the imagination that we achieve perception, and compassion, and hope.
Inventions have long since reached their limit, and I see no hope for further development.
It had never occurred to me before that music and thinking are so much alike. In fact you could say music is another way of thinking, or maybe thinking is another kind of music.
