Escapist Quotes

Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory Picture Quote #1

We have escapist fiction, so why not escapist biography? Picture Quote #1

I’m an escapist kind of writer Picture Quote #1

I think it is good escapist entertainment even though it’s bad Picture Quote #1

It just seems to me that the world’s kind of a mess, and the more messy it gets, the more interested I am in escapist fare. Having a good time is something that isn’t about the war in Iraq or the Asian flu or the Kyoto protocol - things that are horribly depressing to consider in our real lives. I’m eager to get away from them Picture Quote #1

You want loud, dumb, skillful, escapist entertainment? Twister works. You want to think? Think twice about seeing it Picture Quote #1

We immerse ourselves in escapist mass entertainment, such as ‘reality T.V.’ programs. We support fanatical politicians and preachers. Our politicians, in turn, support dictators and tyrants in other countries, all in the name of ‘security’ and ‘stability’. And we arm ourselves to the teeth, and pray to God to be saved Picture Quote #1

This is who I am Escapist Paradise Seeker Farewell, time to fly Out of sight Out of time Away from all lies Picture Quote #1

Escapism, we are led to believe, is evidence of a deficiency in character, a certain failure of temperament, and like so many -isms, it is to be strenuously avoided. ‘How do you expect to get ahead?,’ people ask. But the question altogether misses the point. The escapist doesn’t want to get ahead. He simply wants to get away Picture Quote #1

I think horror films in the past maybe touched on social themes having to do with whatever era in which they were made, but in the end, it’s definitely an escapist form of entertainment Picture Quote #1

Escape into the dream. Escape, a key thing charged against these drugs, that they are for escapists. I think the people who make this charge hardly dare dream to what degree they are escapist Picture Quote #1

People want to see big, escapist fare. They don’t want to be challenged to think Picture Quote #1

I think there’s escapist moviemaking, and we want to be captivated and taken away. If it’s done right, you can craft an incredible film. There have been superhero films that I think are brilliant pieces of art Picture Quote #1

Minimalism? It is something I appreciate as an art form but leave to others - unless you count a collection of warhorse-workwear Yves Saint Laurent trouser suits. Maybe my penchant for hippie-deluxe eccentricity came from an escapist dream of a different world. It was tough being a working mom in the 1970s Picture Quote #1

We have to accept as a society that games are not escapist. They really do change us Picture Quote #1

Fake realism is the escapist literature of our time. And probably the ultimate escapist reading is that masterpiece of total unreality, the daily stock market report Picture Quote #1

Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don’t we consider it his duty to escape? Picture Quote #1

I don’t see why escapist literature shouldn’t also be a work of art Picture Quote #1

You can’t just have stuff that is free and escapist, you have to have stuff that is confrontational as well. You need stuff that is mystical but you need the realism too Picture Quote #1

Escapist literature gets a bad rap. But I think escape is important for a lot of people in a lot of places Picture Quote #1

I’ve never believed that pop music is escapist trash. There’s always a darkness in it, even amidst great pop music Picture Quote #1

All serious art is being destroyed by commerce. Most people don’t want art to be disturbing. They want it to be escapist. I don’t think art should be escapist. That’s a waste of time Picture Quote #1

Now is not the time to shrink from the challenge of saving our only home in the universe. Now is not the time to pull into ourselves, retreating into either survivalist or escapist mode. To the contrary, this is the time for titans, not turtles. Now is the time to open our arms, expand our horizons, and dream big. Big problems require big solutions Picture Quote #1

The problem with most genre fantasy is that it’s not nearly fantastic enough. It’s escapist, but it can’t escape Picture Quote #1

The single biggest misconception about games is that they’re an escapist waste of time Picture Quote #1
