My dreams are not me; they are not Nature, or the Not-me: they are both. They have a double consciousness, at once sub-and objective. We call the phantoms that rise, the creation of our fancy, but they act like mutineers, and fire on their commander; showing that every act, every thought, every cause, is bipolar, and in the act is contained the counteraction.
