I have never sat down and studied the Bible, never consciously echoed its language, and am, in reality, as ignorant of it as most brought-up Christians.

But Trump’s approach threatens to turn it into a negative-sum game: America will lose, too.

There comes a point when a dream becomes reality and reality becomes a dream.

The more I think on the present condition of woman, the more am I oppressed with the reality of their degradation.

At any given moment, we each face a barrage of obligations, often disparate and distinct from what we thought would happen when we woke up.

Art has a double face, of expression and illusion, just like science has a double face: the reality of error and the phantom of truth.
The reality is that diversity as an overall subject has to continue to be addressed onscreen. That goes beyond having a gay superhero.

I’ve studied pathological liars, and anything they say, they believe, and that’s one of the reasons they’re so convincing, because they have no connection with the truth. It’s a dead issue. It’s like they’re color-blind to the truth. So anything that comes out of their mouths is their reality.
Documentaries shouldn’t just reflect the world: they should try and explain why reality is like it is.

Change is inevitable with the evolution of technology. In the ’70s, we had records. In the ’80s, we had CDs, and now we are living in the digital age. You can say it’s sad or unfortunate, but the reality is you’ve got to roll with the times and the technology.
Sometimes nature guards her secrets with the unbreakable grip of physical law. Sometimes the true nature of reality beckons from just beyond the horizon.

The narrative behind bitcoin has been dominated by bad behavior. The reality is bitcoin is filled with tons of talented developers building infrastructure.
Unlike fiction, which you create before you go into production, with reality you kind of create it after everything is produced. The drama and the storytelling is really done in post.
