Jorge Luis Borges
“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”

“You're waiting for a train. A train that will take you far away. You know where you hope this train will take you, but you can't know for sure.

Yet it doesn't matter . . .

Because you'll always be together.”
Christopher J. Nolan, Inception: The Shooting Script

Bianca Scardoni, Inception

Tom Spanbauer
“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, The Man Who Fell in Love with the Moon

يوسف زيدان
“وعلى هذا النحو، يصير التاريخ سجلاً لأعمال الأفراد من القادة والحكام، ويتوارى ذكر البشر والجماعات، بل يتم تهميشهم لصالح إجلاء صورة الحاكمين، فيكون الوعي العام المعاصر مهيأً لحشر الناس في الهامش لصالح أصحاب المصالح، على اعتبار أن تلك هي طبيعة الأشياء، والعبرة التي يؤكدها التاريخ”
يوسف زيدان, دوامات التدين

“Don't seek the end at inception,
And don't grope for beginning in the end,
End has mergence and,
Inception has infinity.”

Mohith Agadi

“Dreaming is a spectrum condition. At one end of the spectrum is the dream of a single mind, and at the other end the dream of all minds. Imagine individual dreams as being points on the circumference of a circle, and imagine all dreams linking together at the center of the circle. The common center is the collective dream, i.e. the “objective world�. An individual dreamer produces fluid, unstable “matter�. The collection of all dreamers produces rigid, stable “matter�. However, it’s based on exactly the same mathematical foundations, namely Fourier spacetime mathematics.”
Thomas Stark, The Book of Thought: Mind Matters

“The world is a collective dream, and we are its dreamers, hence we can change it � if we all cooperate. Nothing is more important than the realization that we can literally alter “material� reality with our minds, but we have to collaborate or we can achieve nothing. Just as the individual mind can change an individual dream effortlessly, the collective mind can effortlessly the change the collective dream, but only if minds are indeed working collectively, with common, directed intent.”
Thomas Stark, Tractatus Logico-Mathematicus: How Mathematics Explains Reality

“When I understand the inception of my desires, I can experience bliss and pleasure without craving, fixation, shame, or dependency”
Leo Lourdes, A World of Yoga: 700 Asanas for Mindfulness and Well-Being

“Chaos needs dispersing,
diffusing thoughts.
Like a flower scattering seeds in gales.
Anticipating they will
find the turf and bloom.”
Monika Ajay Kaul
