Yann Martel, Beatrice and Virgil

philosophybits:

“Stories – individual stories, family stories, national stories – are what stitch together the disparate elements of human existence into a coherent whole. We are story animals.”

— Yann Martel, Beatrice and Virgil(viaquotespile)

fine ok seems logical at first but they’re STORIES, they’re not entitled to be true, right? If we’re told stories that are untrue and we incorporate it into our “existence”, does that make us partially fictitious?
