seeing

"The mythical criteria of efficacy and extraordinariness gave dreams a 'real' status. In fact their subsequent sacred nature often made them more important that conscious experiences. In Homer, for example, dreams are events in the world like any other which happen to the sleeper and which usually disclose crucial information. For the early Greeks, therefore, one does not 'have' a dream, one sees a dream."
