Sometimes it is easier to grieve for pretend people than for real ones,” the Doctor continued, addressing the book lying on the console and not even looking at Jack. “When someone exists only in imagination you can make it easier on yourself. Rewrite the bits that don’t suit you or fill in the gaps that you don’t actually know about.”

...“You can give them more credit than you give yourself, make them stronger than you are. Make believe that although you would fall apart in that situation they are somehow smarter or braver or just better than you are and would get through.”

“Sometimes...” The Doctor paused, “Sometimes real people are harder to grieve for because you know all the weaknesses too, you know that fear that there won’t be a happy ending is always there, that no matter how good the fairytale ‘happy ever after’ has to end someday. With imagination you can simply finish the book, write The End, and never have to face the day when they finally die.”
