¶ Dream
Index Entry
Dream:
"As they last awaken none can prove that they are the same beings that they seemed to think they were before they went to sleep. There may be thousands of ourselves, each awakening to different experiences. None can prove that life is not a dream. To support that provoking thought, it is also to be remembered that the physicists have discovered that every fundamental component of the Universe has its opposite. Negative weights and positive weights altogether cancel each other, and the average weight of all physical phenomena of the Universe is zero-- as is also the weight of thought ‘zero.’
“Furthermore, because Heisenberg’s indeterminism makes it impossible for us to be exact, we can at best give only a sketchy tracery of the dream called reality.”
