"Memory is like fiction: or else it's fiction that's like memory. This really came home to me once I started writing fiction, that memory seemed a kind of fiction, or vice versa. Either way, no matter how hard you try to put everything neatly into shape, the context wanders this way and that, until finally the context isn't even there anymore. You're left with this pile of kitten lolling all over one another. Warm with life, hopelessly unstable." -Haruki Murakami

...you could say that I am dreaming while I am awake, and every day I can continue with yesterday's dream. Because it is a dream, there are so many contradictions, and I have to adjust them to make the story work. But in principle, the original dream does not change. -murakami
