Quote by Lawrence Durrell
Perhaps our only sickness is to desire a truth which we cannot bear rather than to rest content with the fictions we manufacture out of each other.
Summary
This quote suggests that our longing for an absolute truth, which may be painful or difficult to accept, is our only flaw. Instead of facing this truth, we choose to find solace in the stories and lies we create about each other. It suggests that we would rather settle for comforting illusions than confront uncomfortable realities.
