Imagine Quotes
-
You can ask yourself, if a film makes a claim, is the claim true or false? Having said that, a style of presenting material doesn't guarantee truth. There's this crazy idea that somehow you pick a style, and by virtue of picking the style, you've provided something that is more truthful. It's as if you imagine that changing the font on a sentence you write makes it more truthful.
Errol Morris -

Many of us have a tendency to forget the Gracious Hand which has preserved our nation, enriched it, strengthened it.

We imagine what this country is, but quite clearly, this country is a mystery. I mean, one of the reasons I did the election ads is, I thought I could learn something.

Anything you can imagine is yours to be or do or have. As you ask yourself why you want to have it, the essence of your desires is activated, and the Universe begins to bring it to you.

Though it might be nice to imagine there once was a time when man lived in harmony with nature, it's not clear that he ever did.
