About This Quote

Although many people like to create their own stories, it is also true that biographies, metaphysical and psychology are some of the most interesting books to read. They can provide a lot of insight for people who are looking for deeper meaning in life. In fact, these kinds of books often inspire new kinds of stories that can help readers relate to one another. There is a common saying that says “You can dream up your own fiction, but you only read real stories.” But I think this quote is a little arrogant and it is arrogant to think you can create a fictional story better than someone else. Fiction is a great way to make a story understandable for everyone and has a lot of meaning in life.
