English (Source)

The French say that only those who can see reality have a real imagination. This ability is rare. People believe that fantasy is clear by dreaming up some never-existent phenomenon. But never-before-existed fairies have no hands or feet, they are like griffins, and anything that has nothing to do with reality is boring and childish. True imagination builds the new, the wonderful, the surprising from reality. To see reality is a far more surprising and imaginative enterprise than to build dream castles out of clouds that crumble at the first whiff of reality. Learn to really see a sane man, and you will find that he is more surprising and wonderful than the winged heroes of myth.

A franciák szerint igazi fantáziája annak van csak, aki látni tudja a valóságot. Ez a képesség ritka. Az emberek azt hiszik, a fantázia egyértelmű valamilyen soha nem létezett tünemény megálmodásával. De soha nem létezett tüneményeknek nincs kezük, sem lábuk, olyanok, mint a griffek, s aminek nincs köze a valósághoz, az unalmas és gyermekes. Az igazi képzelőerő a valóságból építi fel az újat, a csodálatost, a meglepőt. Látni a valóságot sokkal meglepőbb és fantáziadúsabb vállalkozás, mint felhőkből építeni a valóság első fuvallatára szétomló álomvárakat. Tanulj meg igazán látni egy épkézláb embert, s meg kell tudnod, hogy meglepőbb és csodálatosabb, mint a mítoszok szárnyas hősei.

Francezii spun că doar cei care pot vedea realitatea au o imaginație reală. Această capacitate este rară. Oamenii cred că fantezia este posibilă prin visarea unor fenomene inexistente. Dar zânele neverosimile nu au mâini sau picioare, sunt ca niște grifoni, iar tot ceea ce nu are nimic de-a face cu realitatea este plictisitor și copilăresc. Imaginația adevărată construiește noul, minunatul, surprinzătorul din realitate. A vedea realitatea este o întreprindere mult mai surprinzătoare și mai imaginativă decât a construi castele de vis din nori care se prăbușesc la prima adiere de realitate. Învață să vezi cu adevărat un om sănătos la cap și vei descoperi că el este mai surprinzător și mai minunat decât eroii înaripați ai mitului.
