Quote by Craig D. Lounsbrough

“How much is the impossible nothing more than a figment of a stymied imagination borne out of a blatant rejection of God, and gorged blind by the egotistical elevation of self? And if in fact I have done these two things, then the impossible is in fact not a figment of my imagination.”

“Imagination is not obligated to let practicalities dominate, nor to judge itself in terms of dualistic language (true vs untrue; reality vs fantasy; good vs evil, etc.) The paradox of imagination is that it cannot imagine itself while it is experienced and it can't judge itself while experienced. 'I promise never to imagine cutting a kittens throat' is a ridiculous proposition. Most of us wish that people would not get pleasure imagining such things to the exclusion of anything else. Even so, imagining per se leaves no traces, while planning may do so and preforming always does. Imagining leave no traces, which is not the same as saying imagining has no effect.”

Which of those options honestly scared me more--- that he could be up to some dark shit, or just that I had a crush? Maybe my true crime reading had desensitized me after all, because I knew which of those made my heart speed up.”

“Я считаю, что лишь признание нынешней неясности как всепланетной позволит нам осознать, что таково положение дел в нашем мире. .... Постичь мозаичность и непредсказуемость, связанные с нашим текущим положением, можно, заново открыв врата воображения.”

“To a large extent, the brain doesn’t distinguish real from imaginary, and this underpins some aspects of the placebo effect. When you imagine that something is happening, it really is happening as far as your brain is concerned, and it releases the chemical substances necessary to confirm that what you’re imagining is indeed real.”
