About This Quote

This quote makes it clear that it is not the external world which is inhibiting the character but rather the inward world of his mind. When we think about our reality, we tend to change our behaviour and decisions in order to reflect our belief in that reality. The reality that we create within ourselves has a great deal of power over what we do and how we behave. When we choose to ignore our real lives, we allow these illusory dimensions of our minds to take over and define who we really are.
