"I Talk of Dreams"
I haven't been remembering my dreams lately because of my horrid sleep patterns. Instead, here's a link to a lovely essay by William Dean Howells. Unfortunately, "I Talk of Dreams" was written in 1896, so I know a lot of people won't care. It's really quite funny at times in that academic 1896 way though: "no doubt the reader will agree with me that it is much more romantic to be pursued by a statue than to be threatened by burglars." Indeed.
