The sleepy reason

For some, some reason is reason enough to reason that some are without reason. While they are under the misheld belief that they are wholly without the capacity to conclude from premisses, they are wholly within reason to reason so. Reason, so unreasonably the instrument of the rational, is, without a good reason, employed in the services of the most wonderful atrocities imaginable. It is with good reason that reason is distributed only amongst certain reasonable classes, and not others. For some reason, for some, reason is the sum of their existence. To exist for the sole purposes of multiplying seems reasonable enough, and when you boil it down seems even more so. So, if you are in full control of your facilities you might not like what I'm about to say next. Reason is a wonderful thing. It's my reason for living. I can't imagine what I'd do without it. If it had an opposite, and far be it from me to tinkle on your piano while pissing in your poscket, then imagination might be well be it. Be it in dreaming up some sandwiches for a hat or a talking pair of piano-pants, imagination is just as wonky as a television on a bad hair day with a moustache. Moustaches are deeply offensive. In all these instances, the erroneousness of images is a sight for soaring minds. Reason and imagination: opposite.

Due to a preponderence of insomnia here were my thoughts regarding your post

Some contrast imagination and truth. But if truth is taken to mean the thing-in-itself, outside of our experience of it, then the same contrast can be made of sense data and truth, or reason and truth, or experience and truth, for there is never any guarantee about the accuracy of our perceptions, which is why the greatest accuracy, and hence the greatest truth, is in experience tested rigorously over time. But if truth is taken to signify a correspondence between what we experience and what we say, then imagination is neither truthful nor untruthful. Only we can be truthful or untruthful, as, for example, when we say that we heard something that we only surmised.

Good Lord Norm...... such deep thoughts on such little sleep....please pull me out of such deep waters!
