Folks love fantasy. Beasts the shit outta reality and day of the week.

Garth Ennis
About This Quote

It is a fact that most human beings are dreamers. We all have visions of going to far away lands, searching for mythical creatures and seeing the world from a different perspective. We all have a secret desire to be a hero, a magician or a ruler. The truth of the matter is that we can only live in reality and day-to-day life.

We cannot live in our visions, but we can still draw inspiration from them. The fact is most of us do not want to live in reality, but most of us also do not want to live in our fantasies either. In between these two types of lives lies a sort of murky middle ground where we can find balance.
