“The animal, awake, has no fictional escape from the Real because he has no imagination. Man, awake, is compelled to seek a perpetual escape into Hope, Belief, Fable, Art, God, Socialism, Immortality, Alcohol, Love. From Truth [Medusa] he makes an appeal to Lie [Maya].”

Jack London, The Mutiny of the Elsinore 1914
