Unreality

Famous quotes containing the word unreality:

    Terrified of being alone, yet afraid of intimacy, we experience widespread feelings of emptiness, of disconnection, of the unreality of self. And here the computer, a companion without emotional demands, offers a compromise. You can be a loner, but never alone. You can interact, but need never feel vulnerable to another person.
    Sherry Turkle (b. 1948)

    Converse: I can’t believe we did this.
    Marge’s father: A sense of unreality is not a legal defense.
    Judith Rascoe, U.S. screenwriter, Robert Stone (b. 1939)
