'Realism is seductive because once you have accepted the reasonable 
notion that you should base your actions on reality, you are too often 
led to accept, without much questioning, someone else's version of what 
that reality is. It is a crucial act of independent thinking to be 
skeptical of someone else's description of reality.'-
