“Were you real if nobody noticed you?”
“- I see the real world, Nancy. But it doesn't seem real to me.- How does it seem?- It seems like an illusion that nobody notices.”
“If you want to do the work of God, pay attention to people. Notice them. Especially the people nobody else notices.”
“Nobody gave me what I wanted for my birthday! Nobody! What sort of presents do you call these? New shoes, a green sweater and a bunch of stupid toys!""What were you expecting?""Real estate!”
“Reality means you live until you die...the real truth is nobody wants reality.”
“Have you noticed how nobody ever looks up? Nobody looks at chimneys, or trees against the sky, or the tops of buildings. Everybody just looks down at the pavement or their shoes. The whole world could pass them by and most people wouldn't notice.”
