Quotes About Dreaming

Our waking dream follows physical laws and social and civic laws.

The waking dream can be mastered. Just as we can alter the course of our nighttime dreaming we can remind ourselves before falling asleep to wake up in the middle of a recurring nightmare.

It's simple enough to remind ourselves that we're dreaming all the time, even as we go through an ordinary day.

Dreaming is not merely an act of communication (or coded communication, if you like); it is also an aesthetic activity, a game of the imagination, a game that is a value in itself.

If dreams were not beautiful, they would be quickly forgotten.
~ Milan Kundera
Os seres perfeitos engendram quanto muito um único filho, e os melhores, como tu, decidem simplesmente não procriar. É um desastre. E eu passo o tempo sonhando com um universo em que o homem não viesse ao mundo para viver entre estranhos, mas sim entre os seus irmãos.
~ Milan Kundera
The dreams were eloquent, but they were also beautiful. That aspect seemed to escape Freud in his theory of dreams. Dreaming is not merely an act of communication; it is also an aesthetic activity, a game of the imagination, a game that is a value in itself. Our dreams prove that to imagine - to dream about the things that have not happened - is among mankind's deepest needs.
~ Milan Kundera
