“Imagination is the politics of dreams; imagination turns every word into a bottle rocket. . . . Imagine every day is Independence Day and save us from traveling the river changed; save us from hitchhiking the long road home. Imagine an escape.

Imagine a drum which wraps itself around your heart. Imagine a story that puts wood in the fireplace.”
