Everyone has their dreams. I don't write my dreams down; they just live inside of me.

For a long time, I've had a recurring dream - I dream I don't have to write any more, that I'm free. I'm not free, alas; I'm still clearing the same terrain, with the impression that it's never finished.

My dreams were at once more fantastic and agreeable than my writings.

It has never been my object to record my dreams, just the determination to realize them.

Dreams seem to have a will of their own.

I was not looking for my dreams to interpret my life, but rather for my life to interpret my dreams.

My dream had always just been to do my work well, fall in love and build a life for myself.

I believe dreams represent the purest form of fantasy we unleash through our subconscious. They represent the truest freedom we can experience. Totally unrepressed and totally creative.

My children have stolen my dreams in a very literal sense. I've lost months in the minutes and hours that Sabine and Zoey have needed me at night, their thin, butterfly-beating hearts pushed against me in the darkness.

For years, I thought I simply didn't dream. I felt left out. Everybody else had a thing I didn't have.
