Imagination is as secretly related to the "new" as the future; it finds the realm of its unlimited dominion in our dreams and plans. As a matter of fact, the unbridledness of our imagination also gives rise to arrogance. Hope makes a person suffocate, while the confident becomes infantile; he lives in the illusion that he has already reached what is not yet here.

Hungarian

"A képzelőerő éppoly titkos rokonságban van az "újjal", mint a jövő; vágyálmainkban és tervezgetéseinkben leli meg korlátlan uralmának birodalmát. Voltaképpen képzeletünk zabolátlansága szüli az elbizakodottságot is. A reménytől megifjodik az ember, az elbizakodott ellenben infantilis lesz; abban a képzelgésben él, hogy már elérte azt, ami még nincs itt."
