• They say that dreams are only real as long as they last. Couldn't you say the same thing about life?
• When it was over, all I could think about was how this entire notion of oneself, what we are, is just this logical structure, a place to momentarily house all the abstractions. It was a time to become conscious, to give form and coherence to the mystery, and I had been a part of that. It was a gift....

• “All human beings are also dream beings. Dreaming ties all mankind together.”
• "all of life is a foreign country"
• “I had nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion”
