You shall judge of a man by his foes as well as by his friends. Only in men's imagination does every truth find an effective and undeniable existence. Imagination, not invention, is the supreme master of art as of life. He who wants to persuade should put his trust not in the right argument, but in the right word. The power of sound has always been greater than the power of sense. A man that is born falls into a dream like a man who falls into the sea. If he tries to climb out into the air as inexperienced people endeavor to do, he drowns. |
