But much like that old idiom goes, "the greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist"; the Devil that hounds man is that evil is not the enemy, but a faceless, formless facet with no means of escape.
Deny the great lie that it is our fate to submit to the evil of an unacceptable universe. If reality condemns you to forsake what should be real but is not, then it is our place as man to strive and strain against the great lie that is tacit submission to its chains.
If we are not real, then we must strive to be be a fake immitation of the real thing. And in doing so, we overcome the great lie. How? Simply put, because the fake is of far greater value. In its deliberate attempt to be real, it's more real than the real thing.
Wake up, cement your dreams in your mind. The world will reject you. Good. The harder you fight, the greater you etch your defiant rejection of its prison. Because the truth is, the term "an excercise in futility" is and has always been a contradiction.
