And another, this time suggesting, in visceral detail, the kinship between dream thought with waking thought (ie both proceed from sensation to ex post facto causal rationalisation.)
the dream, however, is the searching for, and the imagining of, the causes for these excited feelings, i.e., the supposed causes...What is thus inferred to have been the near past becomes the present through the excited imagination.
I hope Damasio writes his next book on Nietzsche...
