I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.
I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living.
Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.
My thoughts are stars I cannot fathom into constellations.
Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?
Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.
All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.
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.
Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination.
I believe in everything until it’s disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it’s in your mind. Who’s to say that dreams and nightmares aren’t as real as the here and now?
Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it’s a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope.
Stories of imagination tend to upset those without one.
Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.
I don’t believe in the kind of magic in my books. But I do believe something very magical can happen when you read a good book.
You can't depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus.
I dream my painting and I paint my dream.
Others have seen what is and asked why. I have seen what could be and asked why not.
Trust your heart if the seas catch fire, live by love though the stars walk backward.
