SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME TO EXPLAIN THIS QUOTES!!!!!

“If you expect the world to be fair with you because you're fair, you’re fooling yourself.
That’s like expecting the lion not to eat you because you didn’t eat him”


“Consequently we have the choice between a badly trained imagination and a well trained one [...] you soon realize that our imagination is what our whole social life is based on. We have feelings but they affect only us and those immediately around us and feelings cannot be directly conveyed by words at all. We have intelligence and the capacity for reasoning but in ordinary life we almost never get a chance to use the intellect by itself [...] and practically everything we do is the combination of emotion and intellect we call imagination that goes to work ” The Educated Imagination- Northrop Frye
