“By the same token that all history is a kind of fantasy, though, all fantasy is in its own fashion a kind of history. Whatever we invent we must build from the foundations of what we know of the hopes and fears, desires and ambitions of men. All fantasy reflects that knowledge, just as all knowledge partakes of fantastic speculation. For this reason, we must by no means despise histories of pasts which never were, for they may help us nevertheless to understand what we are and may become. Perchance they may even help us to a better understanding of ourselves than that history in which we have consente4d to believe.
