ReplyDeleteI love this. If I read a book about a cowboy or a doctor or a murderer, it doesn't mean I am going to become any of those things...sigh.
ReplyDeleteGood quote. I read a lot of science fiction when I was a teenager. I was oblivious to my mother's concern, but at one point she finally approached me and hesitatingly asked, "You do know those aren't real, don't you?" All that time she had been worried that I couldn't tell reality from fantasy just because of what I was reading.
ReplyDeleteGreat quote, nice to see Cronenberg used to say wise things, because the recent stuff he says is - how do I say it politely - not wise at all :)
