About This Quote

I fear the death of the imagination because it is a part of me that I cannot live without. Imagination is what makes us human. It is what connects us to the world around us. Imagination helps us ask questions, imagine new possibilities and create new worlds.

The death of imagination would be like having a battery die on you without warning. It would be like losing an arm or leg.
