Let the horror end. Let the villain die.
Let them kiss!
Reality is eternal and indelible; it exists even if you are unaware of it.
I prefer to create beauty from pain rather than seek beauty within it.
Dancing with death is what makes us human, they said in the film.

I prefer fiction over reality.
Knowing that everything ends is what gives meaning to our lives.

Fiction is the only answer to the question “why?” The only escape when we look at the stars.
Our existence is constructed—no one exists before they become.

Because in wakefulness, my eyes close.
I prefer fiction over reality.
