Fantasy is sort of a blank slate that everybody can project their own culture onto. Everybody can read it in their own way.

I think that the way of bringing realism into fantasy is to treat it as the commonplace.

In reality most people aren't as perfect as they want to seem.

All fantasy should have a solid base in reality.

Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.

I think one of things is that all fantasy it seems to me works the way your brain basically works. This is perhaps a startling concept, but I think it's true.

The best fantasy does not offer an answer to our lives, it is an offering that acknowledges enough of the truth to resonate and add to the understanding about the human condition.
