“Reality is, Hope and Despair lie in the same places. And they're just a matter of perspective.What changed my perspective, was her.”

“…a lie, once uttered, changes reality just as surely as if it were a great truth.”

“Regardless of the truth - your perspecitve is your reality, unfortunately there may not be anyone else with the same perspective.”

“Hope is a terrible thing, she said. Is it? Yes, it keep you living in another place, a place which doesn't exist. For some people it's better than where they are. For many it's a relief. From life, she said. A relief from life? Is that living? Some people don't have a choice. No and that's awful for them. Hope is better than misery, he said. Or despair. Hope belongs in the same box as despair. Hope is not so bad, he said. At least despair has truth to it. ”

“Hope and reality lie in inverse proportions.”

“It's a wonderful epiphany: with a lie I can change reality; with a lie I can change the world.”
