Where does fiction end and reality begin?

About This Quote

Where does fiction end and reality begin? is a question of where the border of fiction begins and reality begins. When we read our favorite book, we can’t help but fantasize about it being real. But, what if the characters from the book were real? In this quote by Ray Bradbury , he explains that everything we see on our television screens is a show or movie, but what if that show or movie was real? What if the characters were actually real and not fictional characters on a screen? The first step would be to eliminate all fiction from your life. Then, only things that are true would be able to affect you. For example, you could become a fan of a television series or band, but you wouldn’t be able to get involved romantically with the star of the show.
