Quote

You need imagination in order to imagine a future that doesn't exist.

We think of our future as anticipated memories.

Imagination is the only key to the future. Without it none exists - with it all things are possible.

Imagination - that's the future for us.

If we examine our thoughts, we shall find them always occupied with the past and the future.

All we really have when we pretend to write about the future is the moment in which we are writing. That's why every imagined future obsoletes like an ice cream melting on the way back from the corner store.

I think of the past and the future as well as the present to determine where I am, and I move on while thinking of these things.

Imagination is not only the uniquely human capacity to envision that which is not, and therefore the fount of all invention and innovation. In its arguably most transformative and revelatory capacity, it is the power to that enables us to empathize with humans whose experiences we have never shared.

I don't carry the burden of the past or the madness of the future. I live in the present.
