“While imagination is a faculty of the individual, imaginaries - "shared, socially transmitted representational assemblages" of people, places, and events - are a collective resource, the sum total of available imagery and ideas circulating in media, advertising, literature, word of mouth, and the like.”

“The universe is so beautiful, don’t see from front because We can’t see full views, so We should see this four-dimensional view. (Note: one dimension we can’t see anyway. eyes only can see with two-dimensional image using mind, mind can see three-dimensional solid image using eyes. Time can be placed on 4th dimension. One-dimensional & four dimensional may be placed as nothing & infinity respectively, only we can feel and imagine)”

“A man's imperative command is not only to say "no" in cases where "yes" would be a sign of "disinterestedness," but also to say "no" as seldom as possible. One must part with all that which compels one to repeat "no," with ever greater frequency. The rationale of this principle is that all discharges of defensive forces, however slight they may be, involve enormous and absolutely superfluous losses when they become regular and habitual. Our greatest expenditure of strength is made up of those small and most frequent discharges of it. The act of keeping things off, of holding them at a distance, amounts to a discharge of strength,—do not deceive yourselves on this point!—and an expenditure of energy directed at purely negative ends. Simply by being compelled to keep constantly on his guard, a man may grow so weak as to be unable any longer to defend himself.”

“We can’t Imagine or feel which we never seen, touch, smell, hear & taste. We never feel the experience of death whenever we alive, we never feel the experience of life before born. How we decide it is Light or Dark. It based on eyes (senses) or mind or matter or all of these. Every live body created individual universe in own mind by using knowledge (thoughts) which is different each other. Common universe mixed puzzle of all these universe”
