It's not only imagination, it's the distortion of the vision. You suddenly think, This person is idealistic, this person is strong, this person has dreams, when you know better most of the time. You put what you want to see on people.

Summary

This quote highlights the tendency of individuals to project their own desires and expectations onto others. It suggests that our imagination sometimes distorts our perception, blurring reality with idealized versions of other people. Instead of acknowledging their true qualities, we often believe in what we want to see in them – their strength, dreams, or idealism. However, the quote also implies that this distorted vision may not align with reality, reminding us to have a more realistic view of others.
