Simulations directly relate to the process of and complications in photography. They also overtly create layers of fantasies, myths and interventions... The simulation confuses the idea of a truth. I've always been interested in this kind of theater and illusion at the foundation of belief.
Taryn Simon

Han Suyin
Image
The flowers of life are but illusions. How many fade away and leave no trace.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Image
I like the idea that we build up these walls or rules or laws to maintain our reality, and when they fall away, you're left with a whole bunch of illusions.
Sarah McLachlan
Image
The trouble with illusions is that you aren't aware you have any until they are taken away from you.
Mary Doria Russell

The War Party has two wings: the Democrats and the Republicans. All others are outsiders, whose ability to storm the gates is 'legally' restricted by a nearly impassable series of bureaucratic obstacles designed to keep them out while still maintaining the 'democratic' illusion, i.e. the phony two-party system, which is in reality a single entity.
Justin Raimondo

It's an illusion, control, Naomi said. You ought to understand that by now, young Claire. We are never in control of our destinies, even the strongest of us. All we can hope to do is not be too badly damaged by events.
Rachel Caine

Alas, the spheres of truth are less transparent than those of illusion.
L. E. J. Brouwer
Image
It's an illusion I've noticed before-- words on a page are like oxygen to a petrol engine, firing up ghosts. It only lasts while the words are in your head. After you put down the paper or pen, the pistons fall lifeless again.
Elizabeth Wein

Men will clutch at illusions when they have nothing else to hold to.
Czeslaw Milosz

Liberate yourself from the illusion of culture. Take responsibility for what you think and what you do.
Terence McKenna
Image
Societies held together by fear and repression may offer the illusion of stability for a time, but they are built upon fault lines that will eventually tear asunder.
Barack Obama
Image
All problems are illusions of the mind.
Eckhart Tolle

Many Sages have said, Your world is a dream. You're living in an illusion. They're referring to this world of the mind and the way we believe our thoughts about reality. When we see the world through our thoughts, we stop experiencing life as it really is and others as they really are.
Adyashanti

Friend, many and many a dream is mere confusion a cobweb of no consequence at all. Two gates for ghostly dreams there are: One gateway of honest horn, and one of ivory. Issuing by the ivory gate are dreams of glimmering illusion, fantasies, but those that come through solid polished horn may be borne out, if mortals only know them.
Homer

It's hard to say what exactly I like about New York. It's so vast. It seems to go on and on, but that's an illusion. Still, it's fun to be here, especially since I don't drive.
