I dreamed that I was back in college, taking a general test. One section was on the Humanities and was “match the quotation with the author”, and listed a dozen or so of each.

“Name the author of the following statements:

1. The unexamined life is not worth living.”
2. Etc.”

I had no idea who said that stuff, and didn’t care.

First, I thought I could get most of the answers by a process of rough matching and elimination. Then I thought that knowing the author wasted brain space because you can just look this stuff up on line. Then I thought that I disagreed with most of these “wise” statements anyway. Then I thought “What the hell am I doing taking a stupid test when I should be running a company?”

Then I woke up.

Levels of awareness.
