About nobility, I cannot be sure that the decline not to say the disappearance of nobility is anything more a maladjustment between the imagination and reality. We have been a little insane about the truth. We have had an obsession with… It is not only that imagination adheres to reality, but also that reality adheres to imagination and that interdependence is essential.*
Wallace Stevens
most of life is spent in the deception phase**
Dorie Clark
We are in trouble when we separate truth
and imagination, when we separate reality
and playfulness – one without the other
leads us into error.
May life deepen here:
Bring imagination and play to
who you are and
what you have.
