    Aphorism #99 Reality and Appearance.

    Aphorism #99 Reality and Appearance.

    Things pass for what they seem, not for what they are. Few see inside; many take to the outside. It is not enough to be right, if right seem false and ill.

    I seldom see appearance as different than reality. No need. But then, I don't use the imagination without knowledge. If I see an appearance that seems to be separate from reality, I take it as a problem to solve and work at it until I find the solution. It is never too long.
