Isn't it possible, even likely, that you're all just figments of my imagination? Would you tell me if you were?

I am no figment of your imagination. I am Unicron! You belong to me now.
For a time, I considered sparing your wretched little planet Cybertron.
But now, you shall witnesss ... its dismemberment!

Well, I know I exist, and if I asked someone else about it, they would probably say that they all exist, so the real question is: Is it possible that you're a figment of our imagination?

Clearly, you are all figments of my imagination, trying to trick me into believing that I am figments of your imagination.

One of these...has a future.

I'm posting here.

I see that your all posting here so that your all real.
To me, no matter if your a machine typing your posts or really yourself. Your still real to me no matter what.

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."
