A man without imagination is like a bird without wings.

Wilhelm Raabe

Thought paceth like a hoary sage, but imagination hath wings as an eagle.

Martin Farquhar Tupper

Authors are far closer to the truths enfolded in mystery than ordinary people, because of that very audacity of imagination which irritates their plodding critics. As only those who dare to make mistakes succeed greatly, only those who shake free the wings of their imagination brush, once in a way, the secrets of the great pale world. If such writers go wrong, it is not for the mere brains to tell them so

Gertrude Atherton

Fancy can save or kill; it hath clos'd up Wounds when the balsam could not, and without The aid of salves:--to think hath been a cure. For witchcraft then, that's all done by the force Of mere imagination.

William Cartwright

He who has imagination without learning has wings but no feet. [Fr., Celui qui a de l'imagination sans erudition a des ailes, et n'a pas de pieds.]

Joseph Joubert

The ignorant hath an Eagles wings, and an Owles eyes. [The ignorant hath an eagle's wings and an owl's eyes.]

George Herbert

What is truth? What is falsehood? Whatever gives wings to men, whatever produces great works and great souls and lifts up a man's height above the earth - that's true. Whatever clips off man's wings - that's false.

Nikos Kazantzakis

One who has imagination without learning has wings without feet.

Joseph Joubert

The proud man hath no God; the envious man hath no neighbor; the angry man hath not himself.

Joseph Hall

A man of great memory without learning hath a rock and a spindle and no staff to spin.

George Herbert

He who has imagination without learning has wings but no feet.

Joseph Joubert

The devil was a great loss in the preternatural world. He was always something to fear and to hate; he supplied the antagonist powers of the imagination, and the arch of true religion hardly stands firm without him.

William Hazlitt

The man who has no imagination has no wings.

Muhammad Ali

A man cannot utter two or three sentences without disclosing to intelligent ears precisely where he stands in life and thought, whether in the kingdom of the senses and the understanding, or in that of ideas and imagination, or in the realm of intuitions and duty.
