“Reality is what we take to be true. What we take to be true is what we believe. What we believe is based upon our perceptions. What we perceive depends upon what we look for. What we look for depends upon what we think. What we think depends upon what we perceive. What we perceive determines what we believe. What we believe determines what we take to be true. what we take to be true is our reality.”
Gary Zukav
“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
“It's not denial. I'm just selective about the reality I accept.”
Bill Watterson
“We are more often frightened than hurt; and we suffer more from imagination than from reality.”
Seneca
“Imagination is the one weapon in the war against reality.”
Jules de Gaultier
“Hope in reality is the worst of all evils, because it prolongs the torments of man”
Friedrich Nietzsche

Ralph Waldo Emerson
