Pagina 72 - The fancy is indeed no other than a mode of memory emancipated from the order of time and space, while it is blended with, and modified by, that empirical phenomenon of the will which we express by the word choice. But equally with the ordinary memory the fancy must receive all its materials ready made from the law of association.
Pagina 72 - The primary imagination I hold to be the living power and prime agent of all human perception, and as a repetition in the finite mind of the eternal act of creation in the infinite I AM.
Pagina 77 - I am not blind to the worth of the wonderful gift of "Leaves of Grass." I find it the most extraordinary piece of wit and wisdom that America has yet contributed.
Pagina 432 - So stretch'd out huge in length the Arch-fiend lay, Chain'd on the burning lake : nor ever thence Had risen, or heav'd his head ; but that the will And high permission of all-ruling Heaven Left him at large to his own dark designs...
