GREEN DREAMS
- Seven. Childish dream about a scary tramp. Recurring
- Fog and Dog. Being led through the fog to my parents new house
- Red Scratches. An evil force appears when I'm locked inside a room and can't get out. Red scratches appear on the floor, coming from under the locked doorway; moving across the room whenever I'm not looking
- Red Ghost. A ghost makes us increasingly scared and feeds of our fear: Becoming real
- Shiver Stand. Young adults harbour and use a demon
- Nelson Mandela and his tank. Mandela is armed to the teeth and out to kill me
"Dreams. - On the rare occasions when our dreams succeed and achieve perfection - most dreams are bungled - they are symbolic chains of scenes and images in place of a narrative poetic language; they circumscribe our experiences or expectations or situations with such poetic boldness and decisiveness that in the morning we are always amazed at ourselves when we remember our dreams."
Nietzsche cites this in the "Seventy-Five aphorisms"
at the end of the Appendix of On the Genealogy of Morals as being
from "The Wanderer and His Shadows (1880)" paragraph 194.
