I think that fairy tales and myths are so much a part of our growing-up process that we can never get away from it completely. But I think maybe we spend too much time trying to convince people that what we are reading is worthwhile. Somehow, if we can't tie it to the real world, in concrete terms, it doesn't have value. And that's bad. We've forgotten, or are in the midst of forgetting, that nothing happens without the imagination.
Nothing happens without our being able to dream it up first.
Good things don't just come about . They come about because someone dreamed it. I think we all need a dose of Star Wars right now, to remind us that, as long as we can continue to imagine, we can continue to grow, to advance, to evolve.
