"My relationship to reality has been so utterly skewed for so long that I don't even notice it any more. It's just my reality"
- Ethan Hawke
About this Quote
In this quote, star Ethan Hawke reviews his understanding of truth and how it has actually been distorted with time. He acknowledges that his understanding of the world around him has become so deformed that he no longer even acknowledges it as being different from anyone else's. This recommends that Hawke has actually been living in his own variation of reality, one that is special to him and may not align with the typically accepted standards. It also indicates that this skewed perception has actually become so implanted in his mind that he has become desensitized to it, accepting it as his own truth. This quote highlights the subjectivity of truth and how it can differ from person to person.
