“Reality is in the business of killing off fiction.”
“Beyond the fiction of reality, there is the reality of the fiction.”
“Fictional characters are made of words, not flesh; they do not have free will, they do not exercise volition. They are easily born, and as easily killed off.”
“The difference between fiction and reality? Fiction has to make sense.”
“The only difference between reality and fiction is that fiction needs to be credible.”
“as soon as we renounce fiction and illusion, we lose reality itself; the moment we subtract fictions from reality, reality itself loses its discursive-logical consistency.”
