“That's the thing to know about Louise Bourgeois, more than anything else, is her own immediate reality and her own emotional landscape that is always the subject of her work.”
Eik Kahng
“I'm not just a dreamer, I am an achiever!...”
Philip T. M.
“You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.”
Dr. Seuss
“Reality is merely an illusion, although a very persistent one”
Albert Einstein
“The reality of the other person lies not in what he reveals to you, but what he cannot reveal to you. Therefore, if you would understand him, listen not to what he says, but rather to what he does not say.”
Kahlil Gibran
“We are more often frightened than hurt; and we suffer more from imagination than from reality.”
Seneca
“People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.”
Jim Morrison
