One of my favorite things about 'Star Trek' wasn't just the overt banter but the humor in that show about the relationships between the main characters and their reactions to the situations they would face there was a lot of comedy in that show without ever breaking its reality.
Bad humor is an evasion of reality good humor is an acceptance of it.
Our subconscious minds have no sense of humor play no jokes and cannot tell the difference between reality and an imagined thought or image. What we continually think about eventually will manifest in our lives.
You cannot set art off in a corner and hope for it to have vitality reality and substance.
Hope is the denial of reality.
I know the world is filled with troubles and many injustices. But reality is as beautiful as it is ugly. I think it is just as important to sing about beautiful mornings as it is to talk about slums. I just couldn't write anything without hope in it.
It is difficult to say what is impossible for the dream of yesterday is the hope of today and the reality of tomorrow.
It is only hope which is real and reality is a bitterness and a deceit.
Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man.
I do have 14 tattoos but I also do come home every single night and watch reality TV with my cat.
