Free imagination is the inestimable prerogative of youth and it must be cherished and guarded as a treasure.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I always look on imagination as one of the most powerful things we can cultivate in young people. If they have a good, active imagination, they can cope with life better; they are... able to imagine possibilities and to think around problems.
When you are young your imagination is so clear.
I do think imagination is enormously valuable, and that children should be encouraged in their imagination. That's very true.
The most irresistible charm of youth is its bubbling enthusiasm. Youth sees no darkness ahead - no defile that has no outlet - it forgets that there is such a thing as failure in the world and believes that mankind has been waiting all these centuries for him to come and be the liberator of truth and energy and beauty.
A youthful mind is seldom totally free from ambition; to curb that, is the first step to contentment, since to diminish expectation is to increase enjoyment.
Imagination is the eye of the soul.
There are many ways to be free. One of them is to transcend reality by imagination, as I try to do.
Education must be aimed at creating a wider imagination in the child, not at suppressing. The child's mind must be set free.
Imagination disposes of everything; it creates beauty, justice, and happiness, which are everything in this world.
Imagination grows by exercise, and contrary to common belief, is more powerful in the mature than in the young.
