On Dreaming:

Lewis Hyde:

"In an essay in the journal Nature, Graeme Mitchison and Francis Crick ... once argued, "We dream in order to forget." Each of our days is so filled with particularity, we are so swamped with sensory detail, that the mind needs some sort of filtering mechanism to sort out the trivial and retain the essential."

"It is required of us to forget many particular trees before we can know Tree itself."
