Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back, a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country.

Dreams are necessary to life.

Our life is composed greatly from dreams, from the unconscious, and they must be brought into connection with action. They must be woven together.

In dreams, the gods watch over us. Awake, we're on our own.

To capture the drama of the unconscious, one had to start with the key, and the key was the dream. But the novelist’s task was to pursue this dream, to unravel its meaning; the goal was to reach the relation of dream to life; the suspense was in finding this which led to a deeper significance of our acts.
