Browse Quotations about Imagination

A man may imagine things that are false, but he can only understand things that are true, for if the things be false, the apprehension of them is not understanding.
All the breaks you need in life wait within your imagination, Imagination is the workshop of your mind, capable of turning mind energy into accomplishment and wealth.
All the works of man have their origin in creative fantasy. What right have we then to depreciate imagination.
Before I put a sketch on paper, the whole idea is worked out mentally. In my mind I change the construction, make improvements, and even operate the device. Without ever having drawn a sketch I can give the measurements of all parts to workmen, and when completed all these parts will fit, just as certainly as though I had made the actual drawings. It is immaterial to me whether I run my machine in my mind or test it in my shop. The inventions I have conceived in this way have always worked. In thirty years there has not been a single exception. My first electric motor, the vacuum wireless light, my turbine engine and many other devices have all been developed in exactly this way.
Begin to imagine what the desirable outcome would be like. Go over these mental pictures and delineate details and refinements. Play them over and over to yourself.
By going over your day in imagination before you begin it, you can begin acting successfully at any moment.
By visualizing your goals, you can get your subconscious to work toward making these mental pictures come true.
