Quote of the day

We all have secret lives. The life of excretion; the world of inappropriate sexual fantasies; our real hopes, our terror of death; our experience of shame; the world of pain; and our dreams. No one else knows these lives. Consciousness is solitary. Each person lives in that bubble universe that rests under the skull, alone.

Not only is it not shared, not common, there is no reason to assume that other people don’t find you and your dream utterly revolting.
