Edgar Rice Burroughs Quotes
[The Little Black Boy] Had Seen Tarzan Bring Down A Buck, Just As Numa, The Lion, Might Have Done ... Tibo Had Shuddered At The Sight, But He Had Thrilled, Too, And For The First Time There Entered His Dull, Negroid Mind A Vague Desire To Emulate His Savage Foster Parent. But Tibo, The Little Black Boy, Lacked The Divine Spark Which Had Permitted Tarzan, The White Boy, To Benefit By His Training In The Ways Of The Fierce Jungle. In Imagination He Was Wanting, And Imagination Is But Another Name For Super-intelligence.
Imagination It Is Which Builds Bridges, And Cities, And Empires. The Beasts Know It Not, The Blacks Only A Little, While To One In A Hundred Thousand Of Earth's Dominant Race It Is Given As A Gift From Heaven That Man May Not Perish From The Earth.
