Wolfgang Ernst Pauli Quotes

I've had this reoccurring dream for the last ten to fifteen years.

Dreams say what they mean, but they don't say it in daytime language.

Through dreams a door is opened to mythology, since myths are of the nature of dreams, and that, as dreams arise from an inward world unknown to waking consciousness, so do myths: so, indeed, does life.

Although the dream is a very strange phenomenon and an inexplicable mystery, far more inexplicable is the mystery and aspect our minds confer on certain objects and aspects of life.

Dreams are not without meaning wherever thay may come from-from fantasy, from the elements, or from other inspiration.

In the dream life, you don't deliberately set out to dream about a house night after night; the dream itself insists you look at whatever is trying to come into visibility.

Sexual dreams aren't usually about sex.

The terror and beauty of the dream come from the connection of previously unrelated mundanities of life.

Dreams surely are difficult, confusing, and not everything in them is brought to pass for mankind. For fleeting dreams have two gates: one is fashioned of horn and one of ivory.

About what we neither know nor feel precisely while awake-whether we have a good or a bad conscience toward a certain person-our dreams instruct us fully and unambiguously.

In a dream, we are simply confronted with various loaded symbols, and where one is exhausted, it gives way to another.

Our dreams are a second life.

I have always said to my pupils: "Learn as much as you can about symbolism; then forget it when you are analyzing a dream."

The symbol in the dream has more the value of a parable: it does not conceal, it teaches.

A word only writes its night and rides its dream.

Everybody has weird dreams, but a usual weird dream is, okay, so your mom's driving a car and she's a dog.

dream is the dreamer's own psychical act.

I don't think there's a specific science you can put on dream psychology. I think that it's up to the, obviously, the individual.

There is a psychological technique which makes it possible to interpret dreams, and ... if that procedure is employed, every dream reveals itself as a psychical structure which has a meaning and which can be inserted at an assignable point in the mental activities of waking life.

An overwhelming majority of symbols in dreams are sexual symbols.

Dreams are but interludes, which fancy makes; When monarch reason sleeps, this mimic wakes.

The dream arises from a part of the mind unknown to us, but none the less important, and is concerned with the desires for the approaching day.

All the dreams you show up in are not your own.

In the dream, sheltered from the noise, the subject expressed a judgment much more on the mark than that manifested in wakefulness.
