Success is based on imagination plus ambition and the will to work.

The primary imagination I hold to be the living power and prime agent of all human perception, and as a repetition in the finite mind of the eternal act of creation in the infinite I am.

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, 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.

Imagination was given to man to compensate him for what he is not; a sense of humor to console him for what he is.

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

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

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

I can't imagine a person becoming a success who doesn’t give this game of life everything he’s got.

It’s not when you realize that nothing can help you—religion, pride, anything—it’s when you realize that you don’t need any aid.

Man, unlike any other thing organic or inorganic in the universe, grows beyond his work, walks up the stairs of his concepts, emerges ahead of his accomplishments.
