“We are effectively destroying ourselves by violence masquerading as love. I am a specialist, God help me, in events in inner space and time, in experiences called thoughts, images, reveries, dreams, visions, hallucinations, dreams of memories, memories of dreams, memories of visions, dreams of hallucinations, refractions of refractions of refractions of that original Alpha and Omega of experience and reality, that Reality on whose repression, denial, splitting, projection, falsification, and general desecration and profanation our civilisation as much as anything is based.” HelpingDreamRealityMemoriesSpaceVisionViolenceEventsOriginalsDenialHelp MeDestroyingTime And SpaceProjectionRepressionCivilisationSpecialistsHallucinationsGod HelpReverieAlphasSplittingGod Help MeAlpha And OmegaFalsificationDestroying Ourselves Book:The Politics of Experience Source: The Politics of Experience
“We say that we often see animals in our dreams, but we forget that almost always we are ourselves animals therein, deprived of that reasoning power which projects upon things the light of certainty; on the contrary we bring to bear on the spectacle of life only a dubious vision, extinguished anew every moment by oblivion, the former reality fading before that which follows it as one projection of a magic lantern fades before the next as we change the slide.” MomentsDreamRealityLightNextForgetAnimalVisionMagicBearsProjectsContraryCertaintyFormerReasoningFadesOur DreamsOblivionDeprivedProjectionSlidesFadingDubiousLanterns Book:Remembrance of Things Past: Swann's way.

“To the "masculists" of both sexes, "femininity" implies all that men have built into the female image in the past few centuries: weakness, imbecility, dependence, masochism, unreliability, and a certain "babydoll" sexuality that is actually only a projection of male dreams. To the "feminist" of both sexes, femininity is synonymous with the eternal female principle, connoting strength, integrity, wisdom, justice, dependability, and a psychic power foreign and therefore dangerous to the plodding masculists of both sexes.” MenDreamPastCertainSexJusticePrinciplesCenturyDangerousIntegrityEternalWeaknessBuiltFemaleMalesFeministSexualityDependencePsychicsFemininityProjectionMasochismImbecilityDependabilityUnreliability Author:Elizabeth Gould Davis
