If imagination dominates, it may neglect reality.
![“[Imagination] is the one thing beside honesty that a good writer must have. The more he learns from experience the more he can imagine. If he gets so he can imagine truly enough people will think that the things he relates all really happened and that he is just reporting.” quote by Ernest Hemingway](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/552/ernest-hemingway-83_imagination_imagination-is-the-one-thing-beside-hone_3115951.jpg)
