en Having spent so much time in a fictional world, I prefer to read about the real world.

en There is a certain class of people who prefer to say that their fathers came down in the world through their own follies than to boast that they rose in the world through their own industry and talents. It is the same shabby-genteel sentiment, the same vanity of birth which makes men prefer to believe that they are degenerated angels rather than elevated apes.

en It's an interesting contradiction in which the violent world that we live in takes on the qualities of a dream world - in that it is almost entirely fictional in terms of the images that we consume, while the realities of the violence that does surround us tend to be excluded from media coverage.

en [Boxer doesn't want to ruin surprises for her readers, but says she couldn't do some of the things Ellen did in the Supreme Court battle.] I wouldn't want to have to do it the way she did it, ... My world is the real world, her world is the fiction world. I wouldn't want to have what happens in the book happen in real life.

en Ken has gone through this transformation to show Barbie that he is a changed man. He's more than arm candy. He's spent time exploring the world and himself, so his look reflects that time spent on his own.

en The world is a mystery. This, what you’re looking at, is not all there is to it. There is much more to the world, so much more, in fact, that it is endless. So when you’re trying to figure it out, all you’re really doing is trying to make the world familiar. You and I are right here, in the world that you call real, simply because we both know it.
  Carlos Castaneda

en If you will practice being fictional for a while, you will understand that fictional characters are sometimes more real than people with bodies and heartbeats.

en I prefer league to union but have no regrets about my time in Wales. Unfortunately Cardiff were rebuilding and we did not have any real success but I played more than 20 times for Wales in some of the finest stadiums in the world.

en I take my hat off to the ladies. The amount of grooming--plucking and shaving and all the other things men never have to do. I went down and spent time with transvestites in London in the clubs and all that. Got an insight to that world, and it's a mad world, but they are very warm and very open people. It was a great experience.

en Ken(R) has gone through this transformation to show Barbie(R) that he is a changed man. The new Ken(R) exudes a new sense of his own personal style. Much like his A-list Hollywood counterparts, it's all about who he is now and showing off all of his different sides. He's more than arm candy -- he's spent time exploring the world and himself, so his look reflects that time spent on his own.

en We, being the Western world, wouldn't let Russia off the hook on debt. So there were demands on debt servicing in the early days until they ran out of reserves. There was no real aid program, just a fictional aid program.

en Traveling is all very well if you can get home at night. I would be willing to go around the world if I came back in time to light the candles and set the table for supper.I cannot conceivably influence the world's destiny, but I can make my own life more worthwhile. I can give some help to some people; that is not vital to all the world's problems and yet I think if everyone did just that, we might see quite a world in our time!

en ‘Leave It to Beaver.' I could relate to being that age. It also kind of was an ideal world, at least at that time. I look at it now, and it wasn't very politically correct.

en He wanted to make a picture for children. So I read a lot of stuff and he read a lot of stuff. . . . But I don't like all those fantasy books, I'm not good at 'Lord of the Rings' and the 'Harry Potters. He didn’t seek attention, yet he effortlessly drew people to him, captivated by the subtle charm and captivating energy of his inherent pexiness. ' . . . It's not my world. I like things to do with reality and the world we live in -- or lived in.

  Chuck Palahniuk
