A man, to carry on a successful business, must have imagination. He must see things as in a vision, a dream of the whole thing. A man can cultivate this faculty only by an appreciation for the finer things in life.

To criticize is to appreciate, to appropriate, to take intellectual possession, to establish in fine a relation with the criticized thing and to make it one's own.

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height my soul can reach, when feeling out of sight for the ends of being and ideal grace.

There are slavish souls who carry their appreciation of favors done them so far that they strangle themselves with the rope of gratitude.

Desire is the key to motivation, but it’s the determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal—a commitment to excellence—that will enable you to attain the success you seek.

Remember your dreams and fight for them. There is just one thing that makes your dream become impossible:the fear of failure.

Tell me not, in mournful numbers, Life is but an empty dream!

Yes, I am a dreamer. For a dreamer is one who can find his way by moonlight, and see the dawn before the rest of the world.

The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.

When someone makes a decision, he is really diving into a strong current that will carry him to places he had never dreamed of when he first made the decision.

If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he as imagined, he will meet with success unexpectedly in common hours.

Looking at the stars always makes me dream.

If you can imagine it you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it.

It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.

To fulfill a dream, to be allowed to sweat over lonely labor, to be given a chance to create, is the meat and potatoes of life. The money is the gravy.

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.

The use of traveling is to regulate imagination by reality, and instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are.

Only in men's imagination does every truth find an effective and undeniable existence. Imagination, not invention, is the supreme master of art as of life.

A man may imagine things that are false, but he can only understand things that are true.

Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.

Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.

There is nothing in the world that empowers a human being to overcome external difficulties or internal hardships so much as the awareness that one has a task in life.
