We forget most of our dreams because we don't have access to those parts of our brain once we are switched to wakefulness. But why we evolved that way is a puzzle to me.

I think both science and art are impelled by curiosity: What's really happening? How do things really function? How can I really engage with the world around me? These are questions that artists and scientists both ask.

I think the neural pathways in our brains affect what happens in our bodies, and so can alter our health.

I like the way dreams present themselves as words and images that are trying to get your attention using your model-making brain's ability to make up stories.

A recurring dream probably merits close attention. Something wants you to pay attention.

Stories that are real, that create you, rather than be created by you, are powerful.
