Reality Quotes

I feel as though the cardboard box of my own reality has been flattened and blown open. Now I can see the edge of the world Picture Quote #1

I saw the world I had walked since my birth and I understood how fragile it was, that the reality was a thin layer of icing on a great dark birthday cake writhing with grubs and nightmares and hunger Picture Quote #1

This was the void. Not blackness, not nothingness. This was what lay beneath the thinly painted scrim of reality Picture Quote #1

Too much credit is given to the end result. The true lesson is in the struggle that takes place between the dream and reality. That struggle is a thing called life! Picture Quote #1

Love is based on our capacity to trust in a reality beyond fear, to trust a timeless truth bigger than all our difficulties Picture Quote #1

Reality doesn’t wait for your opinion, vote, or permission, sweetheart. It just keeps being what it is and doing what it does Picture Quote #1

In books, the proportion of exceptional to commonplace people is very high; in reality, very low Picture Quote #1

In my relativity theory I set up a clock at every point in space, but in reality I find it difficult to provide even one clock in my room Picture Quote #1

It’s understandable why someone would like their entertainment to provide an escape from modern day worries and the reality of war. We feel this record creates a healthy opportunity to process some of these emotions rather than deny them Picture Quote #1

A symbol always transcends the one who makes use of it and makes him say in reality more than he is aware of expressing Picture Quote #1

Your reality is yours. Stop wasting time looking at someone else’s reality while doing nothing about yours Picture Quote #1

Being free brings a lightness, a carefree surrender to all that is happening around you, and, above all, an acceptance of reality Picture Quote #1

If you want what visible reality can give, you are an employee. If you want the unseen world you are not living with your truth. Both wishes are foolish, but you’ll be forgiven for forgetting that what you really want is loves confusing joy Picture Quote #1

To be truly visionary we have to root our imagination in our concrete reality while simultaneously imagining possibilities beyond that reality Picture Quote #1

Writing is like a little hole in reality that you can go through and you can get out and you can be someplace else for a while Picture Quote #1

For me painting is a dramatic action in the course of which reality finds itself split apart Picture Quote #1

Cubism is not a reality you can take in your hand. It’s more like a perfume, in front of you, behind you, to the sides, the scent is everywhere but you don’t quite know where it comes from Picture Quote #1

The reality we live in is selected by our conceptual definitions. You and I may be in the same physical space, but each of us will see it as entirely different Picture Quote #1

I suspect that dreams are an integral part of existence, with far more use for us than we’ve made of them... The fine line between the dream state and reality is at times, for me, quite grey Picture Quote #1

Face reality as it is, not as it was, or as you wish it were. Be candid with everyone. Don’t manage, lead. Change before you have to. If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete. Control your own destiny, or someone else will Picture Quote #1

Our difficulties launch us into new states of consciousness where we are inspired to step out of the reality of our smallest thoughts and step into the limitless freedom of our biggest dreams Picture Quote #1

The ego refuses to be distressed by the provocations of reality, to let itself be compelled to suffer. It insists that it cannot be affected by the traumas of the external world; it shows, in fact, that such traumas are no more than occasions for it to gain pleasure Picture Quote #1

Life had taught her that we all require big and small lies in order to survive, just as much as we need air. She used to say that if during one single day, from dawn to dusk, we could see the naked reality of the world, and of ourselves, we would either take our own lives or lose our minds Picture Quote #1

If there’s a thing, a scene, maybe, an image that you want to see real bad, that you need to see but it doesn’t exist in the world around you, at least not in the form that you envision, then you create it so that you can look at it and have it around, or show it to other people who wouldn’t have imagined it because they perceive reality in a more narrow, predictable way. And that’s it. That’s all an artist does Picture Quote #1

Somehow we must transform the dynamics of the world power struggle from the negative nuclear arms race which no one can win to a positive contest to harness man’s creative genius for the purpose of making peace and prosperity a reality for all of the nations of the world Picture Quote #1

If what we regard as real depends on our theory, how can we make reality the basis of our philosophy?... But we cannot distinguish what is real about the universe without a theory... it makes no sense to ask if it corresponds to reality, because we do not know what reality is independent of a theory Picture Quote #1

Whatever sympathy I feel towards religions, whatever admiration for some of their adherents, whatever historical or biological necessity I see in them, whatever metaphorical truth, I cannot accept them as credible explanations of reality; and they are incredible to me in proportion to the degree that they require my belief in positive human attributes and intervenient powers in their divinities Picture Quote #1

The practice of assertiveness: being authentic in our dealings with others; treating our values and persons with decent respect in social contexts; refusing to fake the reality of who we are or what we esteem in order to avoid disapproval; the willingness to stand up for ourselves and our ideas in appropriate ways in appropriate contexts Picture Quote #1

Forgiving someone does not mean you condone their behavior. The act of forgiveness takes place in your own mind. It really has nothing to do with the other person. The reality of true forgiveness lies in setting ourselves free from holding on to the pain. It is simply an act of releasing yourself from the negative energy Picture Quote #1

We are rarely able to interact only with folks like ourselves, who think as we do. No matter how much some of us deny this reality and long for the safety and familiarity of sameness, inclusive ways of knowing and living offer us the only true way to emancipate ourselves from the divisions that limit our minds and imaginations Picture Quote #1
