Waking Quotes

The strange space between sleep and being awake.

These quotes treat waking as less certain than it sounds - a state you can question, or even dream that you're in. One line calls hope itself a waking dream, which sets the tone for the whole page.

We are near waking when we dream we are dreaming.

One does, arguing that dreams can be wiser than waking life, which flips the usual assumption that clear-headed reality always knows best.

Is the waking mind described positively here?

Not really. One quote calls the waking mind the least serviceable one in the arts, suggesting creativity leans more on dreams than deliberate awareness.
