"Long enough have you dreamed 

contemplative dreams, my friend. 

Now I wash the gum from your eyes. 

You must habituate yourself to the dazzle of the light 

and [to the dazzle] of every moment of your life. 

Hence, Remember Yourself. 

Remember Your Soul." 

Walt Whitman in the voice of Mervyn Brady
