Hub: Sometimes the things
that may or may not be true are the things a man needs to believe in the most.
That people are basically good; that honor, courage, and virtue mean
everything; that power and money, money and power mean nothing; that good
always triumphs over evil; and I want you to remember this, that love... true
love never dies. You remember that, boy. You remember that. Doesn't matter if
it's true or not. You see, a man should believe in those things, because those
are the things worth believing in. --Secondhand Lions
“I believe that imagination
is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams
are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That
laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than
death.”
― Robert Fulghum, All I
Really Need to Know I Learned in
Kindergarten
“I believe in the power of
the imagination to remake the world, to release the truth within us, to hold
back the night, to transcend death, to charm motorways, to ingratiate ourselves
with birds, to enlist the confidences of madmen.”
― J.G. Ballard
“The moment you doubt
whether you can fly, you cease for ever to be able to do it.”
― J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan
“I am certain of nothing but
the holiness of the Heart's affections and the truth of the Imagination.”
― John Keats
“It might be a good idea if,
like the White Queen, we practiced believing six impossible things every
morning before breakfast, for we are called on to believe what to many people
is impossible. Instead of rejoicing in this glorious "impossible"
which gives meaning and dignity to our lives, we try to domesticate God, to
make his mighty actions comprehensible to our finite minds.”
― Madeleine L'Engle
