Happiness is ideal, it is the work of the imagination.
Marquis de Sade, French Novelist (1740-1814)
Never lose sight of the fact that all human felicity lies in man's imagination, and that he cannot think to attain it unless he heeds all his caprices. The most fortunate of persons is he who has the most means to satisfy his vagaries.

R. A. Salvatore, American Author (1959-  )
After taking my B.A. degree in 1939 I remained at the University for a further year to take an advanced course in Biochemistry, and surprised myself and my teachers by obtaining a first class examination result.
Frederick Sanger, English Scientist (1918-  )
The degree in which a poet's imagination dominates reality is, in the end, the exact measure of his importance and dignity.
George Santayana, American Philosopher (1863-1952)
When you start to develop your powers of empathy and imagination, the whole world opens up to you.
Susan Sarandon, American Actress (1946-  )
I think I'm an actor because I have very strong imagination and empathy. I never studied acting, but those two qualities are exactly the qualities that make for an activist.

It's a great excuse and luxury, having a job and blaming it for your inability to do your own art. When you don't have to work, you are left with the horror of facing your own lack of imagination and your own emptiness. A devastating possibility when finally time is your own.
Julian Schnabel, American Artist (1951-  )
