is the first of all pleasures. - Voltaire

One
of the greatest bores in life is a too knowing fellow, who sees
through all delusions, and will never let you enjoy any of them, not
even your favorite ones, no matter how agreeable they may be, but
must be always waking you out of some delicious dream, only to tell
you, "My dear sir, you are dreaming;" as if it were not
both proper and natural to dream. He forgets that many things are
pleasant only while the delusions which make them so last. -
Christian Nestell Bovee
People
are so ridiculous with their illusions, carrying their fool's caps
unawares, thinking their own lies opaque while everybody else's are
transparent, making themselves exceptions to everything, as if when
all the world looked yellow under a lamp they alone are rosy. -
George Eliot
The trouble with illusions is that you do not realize you have them till they are shattered. - Unknown
Whatever is a reality today,
whatever you touch and believe in and that seems real for you today, is going
to be - like the reality of yesterday - an illusion tomorrow. - Luigi
Pirandello
