Reality Quotes

When you’re surrounded by people who share the same set of assumptions as you, you start to think that’s reality Picture Quote #1

To the desert go profits and hermits, through deserts go pilgrims and exiles. Here the leaders of the great religions have sought the therapeutic and spiritual values of retreat, not to escape but to find reality Picture Quote #1

To my knowledge there are no good records that have been built by institutions run by committee. In almost all cases the great records are the product of individuals, perhaps working together, but always within a clearly defined framework. Their names are on the door and they are quite visible to the investing public. In reality outstanding records are made by dictators, hopefully benevolent, but nonetheless dictators Picture Quote #1

A vision on its own is not enough. Hard work and dedication is required to make that vision a reality Picture Quote #1

I’m always interested in an atmosphere where dreams and reality mingle on equal terms Picture Quote #1

When you decide to go after a new dream, you need to give less to your current reality and more to your desired reality... Take your energy out of what you don’t want to be doing anymore so you can put it in what you really want to be doing Picture Quote #1

When I make a film I’m always in reality among the trees, and among the people like yourselves. There’s no symbolic or conventional filter between me and reality as there is in literature. The cinema is an explosion of my love for reality Picture Quote #1

If you want me to explain the picture, if you put it in reality, then the mystery goes away. The situation just catches you and you think it is absurd or mysterious and you just take the picture. You don’t want to see the bare reality of what happened. I took the picture as the picture, not as the realistic story of what happened Picture Quote #1

The mind may find unique ways to express what it conceives of reality, but reality remains unchanged by the mind’s efforts Picture Quote #1

Thinking can really be the enemy of action, and thinking can be the enemy of reality Picture Quote #1

Reality is ultimately a selective act of perception and interpretation. A shift in our perception and interpretation enables us to break old habits and awaken new possibilities for balance, healing, and transformation Picture Quote #1

All history is defined by shifting modes of reality and time and how things change. That’s what I love about cinema. It changes in the moment Picture Quote #1

Very often the characters people respond to best have little parts of reality they can relate to Picture Quote #1

Many investors seem to have forgotten a hard reality: There are frequent periods when stock markets don’t do much Picture Quote #1

The reality of a poem is a very ghostly one. It suggests, it suggests, it suggests again Picture Quote #1

Fantasy isn’t just a jolly escape: It’s an escape, but into something far more extreme than reality, or normality. It’s where things are more beautiful and more wondrous and more terrifying. You move into a world of conflicting extremes Picture Quote #1

Digital technology, you see, is not the villain here. It simply offers another dimension. I’m not sure if it’s a farther remove from reality than analogue. I think if we can speak of reality, if reality and representation can be spoken of in the same sentence, if reality even exists any more, digital is simply another way of encoding that reality Picture Quote #1

Art’s only concern with the real is to abolish it, and to substitute for it a new reality Picture Quote #1

Story isn’t a flight from reality but a vehicle that carries us on our search for reality Picture Quote #1

Authors must spend months, years making fantasy believable in a single work while reality runs rampant and complete chaos elsewhere Picture Quote #1

To live fully, outwardly and inwardly, not to ignore the external reality for the sake of the inner life, or the reverse, that’s quite a task Picture Quote #1

Since the tapestry of all time has already been woven, everything I could ever want to happen in my life already exists in that infinite, nonphysical plane. My only task is to expand my earthly self enough to let it into this realm. So if there’s something I desire, the idea isn’t to go out and get it, but to expand my own consciousness to allow universal energy to bring it into my reality here Picture Quote #1

The more invested I am in my own ideas about reality, the more those experiences will feel like victimizations rather than the ups and downs of relating. Actually, I believe that the less I conceptualize things that way, the more likely it is that people will want to stay by me, because they will not feel burdened, consciously or unconsciously, by my projections, judgments, entitlements, or unrealistic expectations Picture Quote #1

Everyone lies to themselves, but many people do it with good intentions. They want to believe what they tell themselves, it is oftentimes the best possible version of reality for them. Although it may not be accurate, it is a mural of their desires, aspirations, optimism and passion. These people usually either need time or a new experience to discover the truth. People who lie to themselves for different reasons are oftentimes trying to avoid something or escape blame for things they have done Picture Quote #1

For me words still possess their primitive, mystical, incantatory powers. I am inclined to use them as part of an attempt to make my own reality more real for others, as part of an effort to transcend emotional danger. For me, words are a form of action, capable of influencing change. Their articulation represents a complete, lived experience Picture Quote #1

Most children, even very bright ones, need constant review and practice to truly own a concept in grammar, math or science. In schools today, on paper it may appear that kids are learning skills, but in reality they are only renting them, soon to forget what they’ve learned over the weekend or summer vacation Picture Quote #1

The media propagates a message that corporations want, and there’s a belittling and mocking of the poor and celebration of wealth. A kind of cutthroat, rapacious capitalism is celebrated on reality television shows where you betray and manipulate and push aside your competitors for fleeting fame and money. These are sick values, but they’re disseminated through corporate media in almost every program you watch Picture Quote #1

It is at this moment, when things appear so bleak that we must redouble our efforts and not give up. We must believe that we can remake the world in a more peaceful reality Picture Quote #1

The prime rule of reality is that we must become in our lives what we choose to experience in the world Picture Quote #1

We will have taken one giant step forward when we face this reality: Powerful people never teach powerless people how to take their power away from them Picture Quote #1
