Nuclear Overhauser Effect

An Old Wooden Table

The table I’m sitting at in my living room looks like a poker table. A picturesque poker table scene. An old wooden table. 7 people sitting around it smoking rolled cigarettes. Half-drunk beers scattered around it. And a large circular lamp low and dead center. And we’re all chatting and laughing. I love Germany.


But none of them realized as Dalí did that dreams are actually not indistinct and misty and floaty. They happen in the middle of the afternoon. Crystal clear. …And dreams don’t have a subtext. You don’t think in a dream. The most unusual stuff happens in the most unusal way. All in broad daylight with no shade.

— John Cooper Clarke, on Salvador Dalí (via nevver)
