Dreaming is an often studied phenomenon, so there is a lot of scientific literature on the subject. A very interesting book I read a couple years ago is called The Mind At Night:LightbulbSun said:I had a dream in a place that I was very familiar with, but knew didn't look the same. And I also said some random quotes that I know I would never think or say in real life. Any explanation as to why dreams go so random like this and distort places/thoughts?
