Motivational Quotes
Reality
I've wrestled with reality for 35 years, Doctor, and I'm happy to state I finally won out over it.
Best Quotes about Reality
Reality is neither good nor bad; it just is.
Dale, Arbie M.
The realist is the man, who having weighed all the visible factors in a given situation and having found that the odds are against him, decides that fighting is useless.
Sales, Raoul De
The real distinction is between those who adapt their purposes to reality and those who seek to mold reality in the light of their purposes.
Henry Kissinger
Reality is a prison, where one vegetates and always will. All the rest --thought, action --is just a pastime, mental or physical. What counts then, is to come to grips with reality. The rest can go.
Pavese, Cesare
You too must not count too much on your reality as you feel it today, since like yesterday, it may prove an illusion for you tomorrow.
Pirandello, Luigi
A test of what is real is that it is hard and rough. Joys are found in it, not pleasure. What is pleasant belongs to dreams.
Weil, Simone
True realism consists in revealing the surprising things which habit keeps covered and prevents us from seeing.
Cocteau, Jean
You bluffed me! I don't like it when people bluff me. It makes me question my perception of reality.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider
Reality is a question of perspective; the further you get from the past, the more concrete and plausible it seems --but as you approach the present, it inevitably seems incredible.
Rushdie, Salman
Reality is a crutch for people who can't cope with drugs.
Lily Tomlin
The truly educated man is that rare individual who can separate reality from illusion.
I've wrestled with reality for 35 years, Doctor, and I'm happy to state I finally won out over it.
Mary Chase
Realism should only be the means of expression of religious genius... or, at the other extreme, the artistic expressions of monkeys which are quite satisfied with mere imitation. In fact, art is never realistic though sometimes it is tempted to be. To be really realistic a description would have to be endless.
Camus, Albert
We must find our duties in what comes to us, not in what might have been.
Eliot, George
No authority is higher than reality.
Zarlenga, Peter Nivio
What is meant by reality? It would seem to be something very erratic, very undependable -- now to be found in a dusty road, now in a scrap of newspaper in the street, now a daffodil in the sun. It lights up a group in a room and stamps some casual saying
Woolf, Virginia
It takes only one other person to say it's so-one other point of reality to make something real.
Pancoast, Mal
The supreme reality of our time is the vulnerability of this planet.
Kennedy, John F.
People see the world not as it is, but as they are.
Lee, Al
Reality is whatever refuses to go away when I stop believing in it.
Dick, Philip K.
What is a lie? It is to say what is real is not real. It is to deny the existence of what exists.
Zarlenga, Peter Nivio
Reality is something you rise above.
Liza Minnelli
Set up as an ideal the facing of reality as honestly and as cheerfully as possible.
Dr. Karl Menninger
Realism, whether it be socialist or not, falls short of reality. It shrinks it, attenuates it, falsifies it; it does not take into account our basic truths and our fundamental obsessions: love, death, astonishment. It presents man in a reduced and estranged perspective. Truth is in our dreams, in the imagination.
Ionesco, Eugene
Reality is not protected or defended by laws, proclamations, ukases, cannons and armadas. Reality is that which is sprouting all the time out of death and disintegration.
Miller, Henry
All the things you think you should have done that you didn't do, and all of the things that you shouldn't have done, accept them. You did (or did not) do them. That's reality. That's happened. No changing the past.
Mcwilliams, Peter
To be realistic today is to be visionary. To be realistic is to be starry-eyed.
Humphrey, Hubert H.
A cause a day keeps reality away.
Fraser, Jim
It has sometimes been said that we find nowhere in nature an analogue of the difference between happens and is, on the one hand, and ought, on the other hand.
Kohler, Wolfgang
Our intention creates our reality.
Dyer, Wayne
Joel: That's the movies, Ed. Try reality. Ed: No thanks.
Ellen Herman
Everything is a dangerous drug except reality, which is unendurable.
Cyril Connolly
I prefer the honest jargon of reality to the outright lies of books.
Rostand, Jean
The successful people of this world take life as it comes. They just go out and deal with the world as it is.
Stein, Ben
The genuine artist is never true to life. He sees what is real, but not as we are normally aware of it. We do not go storming through life like actors in a play. Art is never real life.
Stevens, Wallace
Reality is the leading cause of stress amongst those in touch with it.
Jane Wagner
The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.
Lincoln, Abraham
Reality in our century is not something to be faced.
Greene, Graham
I believe in looking reality straight in the eye and denying it.
Garrison Keillor
Important days don't look like anything special when they start. Invariably, the sun rises and people wake up. Coffee is swilled and eggs are swallowed. Everybody goes about the business of acting like their lives matter and then, no matter how important the events of the day end up being, the sun invariably sets. The sun rose before the soldiers stormed Omaha Beach on D-Day, and the sun set after Archduke Franz Ferdinand was killed. Sunrises and sunsets are real jerks about putting things in perspective.
Josh Lieb
Facts as facts do not always create a spirit of reality, because reality is a spirit.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
Reality is for people who can't face drugs.
Peter, Laurence J.
The unreal is natural, so natural that it makes of unreality the most natural of anything natural. That is what America does, and that is what America is.
Stein, Gertrude
Humankind cannot bear very much reality.
Eliot, T. S.
Meaning and reality were not hidden somewhere behind things, they were in them, in all of them.
Hesse, Hermann
He who thinks he is raising a mound may only in reality be digging a pit.
Bramah, Ernest
To hell with reality! I want to die in music, not in reason or in prose. People don't deserve the restraint we show by not going into delirium in front of them. To hell with them!
Celine, Louis-Ferdinand
The very definition of the real becomes: that of which it is possible to give an equivalent reproduction. The real is not only what can be reproduced, but that which is always already reproduced. The hyper real.
Baudrillard, Jean
What our eyes behold may well be the text of life but one's meditations on the text and the disclosures of these meditations are no less a part of the structure of reality.
Stevens, Wallace
Reality can destroy the dream; why shouldn't the dream destroy reality?
Moore, George
