QUOTES

Our memories are packed away under pressure like steam in a boiler and the dream is their escape valve.

The brain, ... , is that which allows the mind to adjust itself exactly to circumstances. It is the organ of attention to life. Should it become deranged, however slightly, the mind is no longer fitted to the circumstances; it wanders, dreams. Many forms of mental alienation are nothing else. But from this it results that one of the rôles of the brain is to limit the vision of the mind, to render its action more efficacious.

We live outside of ourselves. But sleep makes us retire into ourselves.
