There are no rules of architecture for a castle in the clouds. ~G.K. Chesterton
To me, this quote means that imagination has no limits. A castle high in the sky has no restrictions. I find this special because I am a writer, and my imagination sometimes gets ahead of me. I am glad that imagination is limitless and is whatever you want it to be. Like an artist’s blank canvas, imagination can create anything your heart desires. Unlike architecture, your imagination can run wild and infinitely as long as you let it. Each person sees things uniquely, and one cannot be confined in what one sees. I am not one for many rules. Who is? Imagination is your own and cannot be restricted. I love that this quote means all of these things. Whether I want a mythical world deep in Earth’s center like in Journey to the Center of the Earth or a “castle in the clouds,” I can have it, as long as I imagine it. I am going to build my castle in the clouds in whichever way suits me.
I agree Hope. Imagination should be limitless. Imagination usually feels useless in the real world but when I write I love being creative and letting my imagination go. Imagination is your own and no ones else's. Which is what makes everyone's unique.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree Hope! Imagination is anything that you want it to be. Being an artist and knowing that feeling of sitting in front of a blank canvas, I know how wild and limitless imagination can be. I also love your ending sentence! "I am going to build my castle in the clouds in whichever way suits me." Great job!
ReplyDeleteI love your quote! I'm glad everyone sees things uniquely and imagination isn't restricted. The world would be so strange if we all thought the same. (: You're a fantastic writer! Good job buddy.
