I remember a friend many years ago who had taped a sign to his refrigerator: There's a dream dreaming us. If you try to think about what that means it makes your mind silly, but that silliness is good.Natalie Goldberg

Dreams feel real while we’re in them. It’s only when we wake up that we realize something was actually strange.Cobb

The world is one Matrix, you don't realise it but it's the truth. It's well shown in the films like Matrix 1, 2, 3 and Inception!Deyth Banger

One day or one night–between my days and nights, what difference can there be?– I dreamed that there was a grain of sand on the floor of my cell. Unconcerned, I went back to sleep; I dreamed that I woke up and there were two grains of sand. Again I slept; I dreamed that now there were three. Thus the grains of sand multiplied, little by little, until they filled the cell and I was dying beneath that hemisphere of sand. I realized that I was dreaming; with a vast effort I woke myself. But waking up was useless– I was suffocated by the countless sand. Someone said to me: You have wakened not out of sleep, but into a prior dream, and that dream lies within another, and so on, to infinity, which is the number of the grains of sand. The path that you are to take is endless, and you will die before you have truly awakened. I felt lost. The sand crushed my mouth, but I cried out: I cannot be killed by sand that I dream –nor is there any such thing as a dream within a dream.– Jorge Luis Borges, The Writing of the God.Jorge Luis Borges

I tell you I'm tired of hearing it. There ain't nothing that happens to a person that ain't that person. The world out there only does what you tell it to do. The world is happening to you the way it is happening because you're telling yourself the story that way. If you want to change the world so damn bad, Ida, then where you got to start is how it is you're looking at it.Tom Spanbauer

Everything about the house was rich, and dense, and rooted. It was everything I wasn’t. Even the air, with its distinct smell of oak wood and sage, spoke to its identify and its history. I couldn’t help but feel small here. Overwhelmed. Incompatible.Bianca Scardoni

In order to create an idea... to become an idea, it is a necessity for you to believe that it is your own idea. The idea will grow to define your entire life. And when you die... you don't.Lionel Suggs

One misstep was all it took, and it all came crashing down. And they were right there waiting for it–eager and ready to bury me in the wreckage.Bianca Scardoni
