Famous quotes containing the words imaginary and/or worlds:

    We do not content ourselves with the life we have in ourselves and in our being; we desire to live an imaginary life in the mind of others, and for this purpose we endeavor to shine. We labor unceasingly to adorn and preserve this imaginary existence and neglect the real.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    fast, perfect, and unwilling
    to tell me that you are doing
    well, or that it was mistake
    that placed you in that world,
    and me in this; or that misfortune
    placed these worlds in us.
    James Tate (b. 1943)
