Summary
This quote suggests that illusion, or the creation of a false reality or perception, is often the initial source of pleasure. It implies that people find pleasure in the imaginative and deceptive aspects of illusions. These illusions may provide a temporary escape from reality or offer a sense of excitement and wonder. However, the quote also implies that the pleasure derived from illusions is transient, serving as only a momentary source of enjoyment before reality sets in.
