"Imagination and fiction make up more than three quarters of our real life"
- Simone Weil
About this Quote
Simone Weil's quote recommends that our lives are mostly shaped by our imaginations and the stories we tell ourselves. She indicates that our truth is largely a product of our own minds, which our ideas and beliefs have an effective impact on our lives. This concept is supported by the reality that our beliefs and expectations can form our experiences and outcomes. For instance, if we believe that something is possible, we are more likely to take action and make it happen. Similarly, if we inform ourselves a story of failure, we are more likely to give up before we even attempt. Weil's quote motivates us to be mindful of the stories we inform ourselves and to use our creativities to develop a life that is full of possibility and potential. By doing so, we can produce a truth that is more meaningful and fulfilling.

"Life is life - whether in a cat, or dog or man. There is no difference there between a cat or a man. The idea of difference is a human conception for man's own advantage"
