The Dreaming Up Daily Weekly Quote
"What the responsible citizen really uses is his imagination, not believing anybody literally, but voting for the man or party that corresponds most closely, at least remotely, to his vision of the society he wants to live in. The fundamental job of the imagination in ordinary life, then, is to produce out of the society we have to live in, a vision of the society we want to live in."
Northrup Frye
The Educated Imagination
