“Invisible things are the only realities.”

“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.”

“This is the power of myth: that we can experience invisible spiritual realities and truths greater than visible, material things in story form.”

“After departure, only invisible things are left, perhaps the life of the world is held together by invisible chains of memory and loss and love. So many things, so many people, depart! And we can only repossess them in our minds.”

“You see, the strangeness of my case is that now I no longer fear the invisible, I’m terrified by reality.”

“Whether there is such a thing as Reality, of which the various levels are only partial aspects, or whether there are only levels, is something that literature cannot decide. Literature recognizes rather the *reality of the levels.* ”
