    Men consort in camp and town
    But the poet dwells alone.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Fantasy is a product of thought, Imagination of sensibility. If the thinking, discursive mind turns to speculation, the result is Fantasy; if, however, the sensitive, intuitive mind turns to speculation, the result is Imagination. Fantasy may be visionary, but it is cold and logical. Imagination is sensuous and instinctive. Both have form, but the form of Fantasy is analogous to Exposition, that of Imagination to Narrative.
    Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)

    Well, at least I have the satisfaction of having destroyed a terrible monster, and in doing so rid the world of an awful curse.
