The unreal is more powerful than the real. Because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on. If you can change the way people think. The way they see themselves. The way they see the world. You can change the way people live their lives. That's the only lasting thing you can create.

So very true.
This is thought-provoking. I think we tend to think too big in terms of what we can and can't do, but if each one of us thought small, even very small, like one person at a time, then we would make a difference. And the thought of needing to do something wouldn't overwhelm us. Yes, thin is a great quote, and I love the picture!
Love this.
