Quote by Alvin Toffler

One of the definitions of sanity is the ability to tell real from unreal. Soon we'll need a new definition.


One of the definitions of sanity is the ability to tell real

Summary

This quote suggests that with the rapid advancement of technology and our increasing reliance on digital platforms, our understanding of sanity may require redefinition. Since determining what is real and what is fake becomes more challenging in today's digital age, distinguishing between reality and illusion is no longer the sole criterion for determining one's sanity. As technologies like deepfakes and virtual reality continue to blur the lines between what is genuine and fabricated, our definition of sanity may need to encompass a deeper understanding of the complexities in distinguishing truth from deception.

You find out in life that people really like you funny. So what do you give 'em? Humor. And then if you show them the other side, they don't like you as much. I find, too, that I can hide behind the idiot's mask being funny, and you never see the sorrow or the pain.

«Ma è commovente, Severus» osservò Silente, serio.«Ti sei affezionato al ragazzo, dopotutto?»«A lui?» Urlò Piton «Expecto Patronum!»Dalla punta della sua bacchetta affiorò la cerva d'argento: atterrò sul pavimento dell'ufficio, fece un balzo e si tuffò fuori dalla finestra.
