On Imagination
______________________________

A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man
contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a
cathedral.

Imagination lit every lamp in this country, built every
church, performed every act of kindness and progress,
created more and better things for more people. It is the
priceless ingredient for a better day.

As much as I hate failing, I do believe there is something worse for myself than failure.

“The credit belongs to those people who are actually in the arena…who know the great enthusiasm, the great devotions to a worthy cause; who at best, know the triumph of high achievement and who, at worst, fail while daring greatly...so that their place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”

Theodore Roosevelt
