Fantasy Quotes
-
You love the accidental. A smile from a pretty girl in an interesting situation, a stolen glance, that is what you are hunting for, that is a motif for your aimless fantasy. You who always pride yourself on being an observateur must, in return, put up with becoming an object of observation. Ah, you are a strange fellow, one moment a child, the next an old man; one moment you are thinking most earnestly about the most important scholarly problems, how you will devote your life to them, and the next you are a lovesick fool. But you are a long way from marriage.
Soren Kierkegaard
-
I really connected with martial arts. I'd always had a fantasy as a kid of being a ninja warrior, so it definitely answered that sort of need in my psyche, too - a need to be superpowerful.
Milla Jovovich
-
Honestly, Im living my fantasy. Its being with my family, preferably on a snowy afternoon with a fire going, cuddled up in blankets, playing a game.
Meredith Vieira
-
Function is a fantasy...the form of designed things is decided by choice or else by chance; but it is never actually entailed by anything whatever.
David Pye
-
I like going back in time and writing historical fantasy. I use some real historical characters as a background to give depth to the fantasy. And I throw my fictional characters into the midst of this, and, so far, it has turned out interesting.
Judith Tarr
-
There are some people who can never see a little cloud of fantasy float across the horizon of their dreams without building a heavy castle in the air upon it, and bringing it to earth.
Stella Benson
-
I like fantasy. I've always been the kind of kid who likes to dream about other things I could be and exotic situations I could be in.
Scott Bakula
-
Fantasy involves that which general opinion regards as impossible; science fiction involves that which general opinion regards as possible under the right circumstances. This is in essence a judgment call, since what is possible and what is not cannot be objectively known but is, rather, a subjective belief on the part of the reader.
Daryl Gregory
-
Your fantasies are unlikely. But beautiful.
Thomas Edward Yorke
Atoms for Peace

In nature, a child finds freedom, fantasy, and privacy: a place distant from the adult world, a separate peace.
Richard Louv
-
Men live in a fantasy world. I know this because I am one, and I actually receive my mail there
Scott Adams
-
Most people don't see the edginess in my work. They think it's all fantasy and whimsy.
Niki de Saint Phalle
-
A fantasy can be equivalent to a paradise and if the fantasy passes, better yet, because eternal paradise would be very boring.
Juan Ramon Jimenez
-
I feel that there is an alternate ending that leaps off too far into fantasy and there is an alternate ending that leaps off too far into pessimism, but that, in fact, the novel as it has developed should, if it's functioning correctly, have equipped you as the reader to make your own decision about where you want to go with that, about where you're going to fall on that continuum. So, the novel is taking you directly up to the point that you have to choose, and it's letting you do that.
Emily Barton
-
I grew up with Thundercats and She-Ra: Princess Of Power. That was sort of my take on fantasy: the women after-school cartoon world.
Milla Jovovich
-
The libidinal fantasy-stream only becomes significant for other people, i.e. capable of mediation, if it is socialised through fusion with the canon, while at the same time energizing and individualizing the canon or the conscience.
Norbert Elias
-
Every idea appears at first as a strange visitor, and when it begins to be realized, it is hardly distinguishable from fantasy.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
-
Is such a street scene as the blue prostitutes not a picture of fantasy? Of course, only the accusation is really present. But how nice, how powerful, and how removed from nature is the design. The danger of being caught up in the representational did not exist for Kirchner he is writing about himself, in the third person. Instead he thought too painterly for that. The graphics and paintings of the 'Streetscenes' show best where purely painterly, one could say non-representational, feelings converged.
Ernst Ludwig Kirchner
-
If there's any kind of morality, for me, it's about reality; what is reality? I have a hard time distinguishing what is valuable when it comes to the real world and the fantasy world. Like, should I invest my time in the ordinary world or the imaginary world?
Sufjan Stevens
-
I think glamour is a female thing. I don't think that's a male fantasy. I think glamour's a female fantasy.
Anna Biller
