I think it’s trying to say that our choices are what brings us to our realities. For example, a person who chooses to do drugs must face the consequence of the grim reality they face: addiction and other hardships on them and their families.
The second part of the quote, “or that reality is illusion and so is choice,” means to say that reality isn’t really real. It’s all an illusion. Therefore, we are under the impression that what is happening to us is real, and think that we make our own choices. But really, we don’t make our own choices-they are predetermined, and the “reality” of these choices is our predestined fate. It’s all in the stars, really.
Well, that’s my interpretation of it. I hope it wasn’t too confusing.

“Choice as the engine of reality” means that choices you make in everything you do are what drives your life in the direction that it goes. Example: You make the “choice” to not go to school today and that choice may lead to you being expelled from school. On the other hand, if you make the “choice” to go to school you may get a good grade on a test the next week because you learned the correct answers when you went to school today.
“Reality is an illusion and so is choice” means that if everything that we do isn’t real at all, then none of the “choices” we make are real either. Everything becomes an illusion.
At least that’s what I get out of it.
