• ¿Por qué en esta época moderna nos obsesionan tanto los mitos y las historias populares? ¿Por qué seguimos contando los mismos cuentos una y otra vez? Creo que es porque estas historias no son sólo fantasía. Tratan de la vida real. Todos nos hemos topado con lobos malvados, hemos encontrado hadas madrinas y nos hemos enfrentado a pruebas de fuego. Todos nos hemos adentrado en bosques desconocidos en algún momento de nuestra vida. Todos hemos tenido que aprender a distinguir a los amigos de los enemigos y a ser amables con las viejas al borde del camino. . . .

• But, in truth, it had not exactly been gold, or even the promise of gold, but more like the fantasy of gold, the fairy dream that the gold is there, at the end of the rainbow, and will continue to be there forever - provided, naturally, that you don't go and look. This is known as finance.

• 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

• A man may daydream of how he would spend a million dollars, but playing the same game with a billion dollars sours the fantasy. There are too many possibilities. The house he once wished for with all his heart is suddenly too small. The travel, too cheap. He wanted to visit an island. Now he contemplates buying one.

• In so many ways, he had wanted this his whole life—or at least ever since he’d survived his transition and had any sexual impulse at all. This moment was the culmination of countless daydreams and innumerable fantasies, his secret desire made manifest.

• La humanidad actual es como un soñador despierto, atrapado entre las fantasías del sueño y el caos del mundo real. La mente busca pero no encuentra el lugar y la hora precisos. Hemos creado una civilización de la Guerra de las Galaxias, con emociones de la Edad de Piedra, instituciones medievales y tecnología divina. Damos tumbos. Estamos terriblemente confundidos por el mero hecho de existir, y somos un peligro para nosotros mismos y para el resto de la vida.

  E. O. Wilson

• En su fantasía, volvió a besar a su mejor amigo, se apartó y... "Te quiero", dijo dentro del chorro de la ducha. "Te... amo". Mientras cerraba los ojos contra el dolor, era difícil saber cuánto de lo que corría por sus mejillas era agua y cuánto era otra cosa.

• He kissed her as though he were starved for her. Like he'd been held away from her and had finally broken free. It was the kind of kiss that lived only in her fantasies. No one had ever made her feel so..consumed.

• There he is, a woman's living, breathing fantasy, doing his slow, cocky turn, spiky black hair, darkly tanned chest, dimpled smile-killer smile-all in the package of Remington Tate. He's perfection itself, and a new surge of hormones sweeps through me as I do what the rest of the crowd does and take in his visual, so blatantly on display in those low riding boxing shorts and so strikingly sexy, he becomes the center of my attention. The center. Of my. World.

• Todos somos jueces y juzgados, víctimas de la malicia casual y de la fantasía de los demás, y fuentes fáciles de fantasía y malicia a nuestra vez. Y si a veces se nos acusa de pecados de los que somos inocentes, ¿no hay también otros pecados de los que somos culpables y de los que el mundo no sabe nada?

• Nacer significa estar obligado a elegir una época, un lugar, una vida. Existir aquí, ahora, significa perder la posibilidad de ser otros innumerables y potenciales yos.. Sin embargo, una vez nacido no hay vuelta atrás. Y creo que ésa es exactamente la razón por la que los mundos fantásticos de las películas de dibujos animados representan con tanta fuerza nuestras esperanzas y anhelos. Ilustran un mundo de posibilidades perdidas para nosotros.

  Hayao Miyazaki
