“Some imaginations help to break the bondage of the rest. The whole universe is imagination, but one set of imaginations will cure another set.

But the other set - thou art holy, there is God, there is no pain - these are good, and help to break the bondage of the others. The highest imagination that can break all the links of the chain is that of the Personal God.”
