Reality Quotes

Happiness in reality consists only in rest, and not in being stirred up. This instinct conflicts with the drive to diversion, and we develop the confused idea that leads people to aim at rest through excitement Picture Quote #1

Realism falls short of reality. It shrinks it, attenuates it, falsifies it; it does not take into account our basic truths and our fundamental obsessions: love, death, astonishment. It presents man in a reduced and estranged perspective. Truth is in our dreams, in the imagination Picture Quote #1

The reality distortion field was a confounding mélange of a charismatic rhetorical style, indomitable will, and eagerness to bend any fact to fit the purpose at hand Picture Quote #1

The mountains were his masters. They rimmed in life. They were the cup of reality, beyond growth, beyond struggle and death. They were his absolute unity in the midst of eternal change Picture Quote #1

It is, I suppose, the common grief of children at having to protect their parents from reality. It is bitter for the young to see what awful innocence adults grow into, that terrible vulnerability that must be sheltered from the rodent mire of childhood Picture Quote #1

I write. I imagine. The act of imagining in itself enlivens me. I am not frozen and paralyzed before the predator. I invent characters. At times I feel as if I am digging up people from the ice in which reality enshrouded them, but maybe, more than anything else, it is myself that I am now digging up Picture Quote #1

What’s writing really about? It’s about trying to take fuller possession of the reality of your life Picture Quote #1

Everest has always been a magnet for kooks, publicity seekers, hopeless romantics and others with a shaky hold on reality Picture Quote #1

I believe in the future resolution of these two states, dream and reality, which are seemingly so contradictory, into a kind of absolute reality, a surreality, if one may so speak Picture Quote #1

Her eyes were those of someone who’s just fallen in love, someone who sees nothing but her lover, someone who has no fear of anything. The eyes of someone who believes that every dream will come true, that reality will move if you just give it a push Picture Quote #1

People assume that they perceive reality as it is, that our senses accurately record the outside world. Yet the science suggests that, in important ways, people experience reality not as it is, but as they expect it to be Picture Quote #1

The idea of the future, pregnant with an infinity of possibilities, is thus more fruitful than the future itself, and this is why we find more charm in hope than in possession, in dreams than in reality Picture Quote #1

That heartbreaking moment when you finish an amazing book, and you are forced to return to reality Picture Quote #1

We explore because we are curious, not because we wish to develop grand views of reality or better widgets Picture Quote #1

That’s the thing about being a victim; you start to think it’ll happen to you on a regular basis. It’s living with the reality of your own vulnerability, and it sucks Picture Quote #1

In reality of everyday occurrences I’ve had to submit to people in order not to lose them. It’s less the submission that bothers me, I guess, than how it makes my life miserable. And what happens if I can’t forgive myself for making that choice? And what if, in order to keep on living, I have to continue to accept myself? What am I supposed to do? Conclusion: It’d be best if I’m destroyed. The best thing is for me just to vanish Picture Quote #1

When dreams come true in reality they never feel the same as when you imagine them, and you know what that means? It means that no matter how good things are, maybe they’ll never be good enough, and there’s something seriously wrong with that Picture Quote #1

Tonight, I’ve finally learned to tell fantasy from reality. And, knowing the difference, I choose fantasy Picture Quote #1

We all want explanations for why we behave as we do and for the ways the world around us functions. Even when our feeble explanations have little to do with reality. We’re storytelling creatures by nature, and we tell ourselves story after story until we come up with an explanation that we like and that sounds reasonable enough to believe. And when the story portrays us in a more glowing and positive light, so much the better Picture Quote #1

Fantasies were safe. It was a break from reality. A chance to act on desires for a short period of time Picture Quote #1

Reality is not a function of the event as event, but of the relationship of that event to past, and future, events Picture Quote #1

The human mind had a remarkable ability both to discount what it sees and make reality conform to expectation Picture Quote #1

There is a big difference between hurt and harm. We all hurt sometimes in facing hard truths, but it makes us grow. It can be the source of huge growth. That is not harmful. Harm is when you damage someone. Facing reality is usually not a damaging experience, even though it can hurt Picture Quote #1

Dreams can be of value even if you don’t have an opportunity to turn them into reality Picture Quote #1

You describe your reality in the highest resolution even when it’s a nightmare and in doing so, you live your own life, not a cliche others have formulated for you Picture Quote #1

As soon as reality breaks, as soon as we’re separated from the phsical world, the cracks begin to appear in our minds. And through them seeps the madness that has always been there, flowing into your skull like a liquid nightmare Picture Quote #1

There was no way to grasp the reality of the present which slid away each second, invisible as air; reality only existed after the fact, in one’s vision of the past Picture Quote #1

In my heart I know the truth, but my mind cannot accept the reality of what this all means Picture Quote #1

Another reality about relationships is that they are never static. All of us experience changes in relationships but a few stop to analyse why a relationship gets better or worse Picture Quote #1

If reality is as equally valuable as fiction, then you should just chalk up the parts of the past you don’t need to your imagination Picture Quote #1
