Summary

This quote suggests that people sometimes confuse their imagination with their memories. It highlights the tendency of individuals to blend or distort their recollections with fantastical elements. This confusion arises from the power of imagination, as it can vividly create ideas and images that may become intertwined with one's perception of past events. It implies that the fluid nature of memory allows for the integration of fictional elements over time, making it difficult to distinguish between what is truly remembered and what is imagined.
