“Shams and delusions are esteemed for soundest truths, while reality is fabulous.”
“No man is happy without a delusion of some kind. Delusions are as necessary to our happiness as realities..”
“The belief that one’s own view of reality is the only reality is the most dangerous of all delusions.”
“Sometimes a happy delusion is better than grim reality.”
“If you make fiction just as valuable as reality, then any reality you don't need can be a delusion”
“On the other hand, sometimes a happy delusion is better than grim reality.”
