The word 'Christianity' is already a misunderstanding - in reality there has been only one Christian, and he died on the Cross.
The reality is when you open a door, there is no sense in closing it - so I would never say, 'I'll never act again.' But it's definitely not my priority.
It is far more difficult to murder a phantom than a reality.

Each one of us has to take responsibility for reality, and present it so that kids will grow up familiar with that and say, OK. I've seen that before. I'm not afraid of it.
Art is not a study of positive reality, it is the seeking for ideal truth.
In reality, most of America's poor work hard, often in two or more jobs.
In our will, there lives something which is perpetually observing us inwardly. It is easy to look upon this inner spectator as something intended to be taken pictorially; the spiritual investigator knows it to be a reality, just as sense-perceptible objects are realities.
Reality TV has totally destroyed soap operas. They're gone. They used to be the biggest thing in the world - they're gone.
