In his book The Examined Life, philosopher Robert Nozick writes: “The notion of reality has various aspects or dimensions. To be more intense and vivid is to be more real, to be more valuable is to be more real, and so on.” Provide some examples of things you think are part of reality and that you think matter to you. Do you agree that some things have “more reality” than others? Would you say some of your examples have more reality than the others? What would you yourself mean when you say something has “more reality” than something else? How would you explain the difference between something that is part of reality and something that is not part of reality?
