Illusion

Every second of every day people believe, often in perfectly good faith, that they’re doing one thing when they actually doing something completely different. And this is what I find to be the true poignancy of being human. It’s tragic, it’s comic and in its own peculiar way...it’s beautiful.
-- Ted Mooney in an interview with Sam Tannenhaus, NYT book review podcast, 4 June 2010.
