“And so, as I sleep, some dream beguiles me, and suddenly I know I am dreaming. Then I think: this is a dream, a pure diversion of my will; and now that I have unlimited power, I am going to cause a tiger. - Dreamtigers”

― Herman Melville, Moby Dick

― Jorge Luis Borges, Dreamtigers

“Stability,” insisted the Controller, “stability. The primal and the ultimate need. Stability. Hence all this.”
