“See fantasy is what people want, but reality is what they need. And I just retired from the fantasy part.”

“I live in a world of fantasy, so keep your reality away from me. I see what I want, I want what I see and that is all okay with me.”

“It is in the capacity to love, that is to SEE, that the liberation of the soul from fantasy consists. The freedom which is a proper human goal is the freedom from fantasy, that is the realism of compassion. What I have called fantasy, the proliferation of blinding self-centered aims and images, is itself a powerful system of energy, and most of what is often called 'will' or 'willing' belongs to this system. What counteracts the system is attention to reality inspired by, consisting of, love.”

“Tonight, I've finally learned to tell fantasy from reality. And, knowing the difference, I choose fantasy.”

“At first Nick was able to divide this fantasy from reality, but as time passed, he became more sure that the fantasy was reality.”

“Reality depresses me. I need to find fantasy worlds and escape in them.”
