Imagination V Reality

[cacian]

What is the borderline difference between what is real and what we imagine.
Reality cruises the mind and imagination teases it.
Is there such a thing as reality without people?

[Charles Darnay]

You are essentially asking if something can be and not be at the same time. Aristotle would give a resounding no. But Aristotle never heard of......

So...yes.

Aristotle was an aithereological spontaneously arriving fly that never learned how to cook and together with Plato produced a lot of ulcers.

[Charles Darnay]

That's funny: there was a quote I recently read that was (I may be paraphrasing): "Aristotle would have written more if he learned to cook."

[cafolini]

That must have been an Epicurian touch.

Humm I think Aristotle and Plato together would have made a potent dish if they were let. Now that is an imagination to be reckoned with. Where is Nostradamus when we need him?

EpicuREAn? Intriguing word a one I never knew of. Sensuality and food... I am not so sure of the meaning of the two.

How interesting. Cooking requires skills and attention to details. Writing I guess is the same.
