1Man, I just had the weirdest dream back on the bus there.
2Do you ever have those dreams that are just completely real ?
3I mean, they're so vivid, it's just like completely real.
4It's like there's always something bizarre going on in those.
5I have one about every two years or something.
6I always remember 'em really good.
7It's like there's always someone getting run over or something really weird.
8Uh, one time I had lunch with Tolstoy.
9Another time I was a roadie for Frank Zappa. Anyway.
10So this dream I just had, it was just like that...
11except instead of anything bizarre going on...
12I mean, there was nothing going on at all.
13Man. It was like The Omega Man. There was just nobody around.
14I was just traveling around...
15you know, staring out the windows of buses and trains and cars, you know.
16When I was at home, I was, like, flipping through the TV stations endlessly, reading.
17I mean, how many dreams do you have where you read in a dream?
18Wait. Man, there was this book I just read on the bus - You know, it was my dream, so I guess I wrote it or something.
19But, uh, man, it was bizarre. It was like, uh...
20 the premise for this whole book...
21was that every thought you have creates its own reality , you know?
22It's like every choice or decision you make...
23the thing you choose not to do ...
24fractions off and becomes its own reality, you know...
25and just goes on from there forever.
26I mean, it's like...
27uh, you know, in the Wizard of Oz...
28when Dorothy meets the Scarecrow and they do that little dance at that crossroads...
29and they think about going all those directions...
30then they end up going in that one direction.
31I mean, all those other directions, just because they thought about it...
32became separate realities.
33They just went on from there and lived the rest of their life .
34I mean, entirely different movies, but we'll never see it...
35because, you know, we're kind of trapped in this one reality restriction type of thing.
36Another example would be like back there at the bus station.
37As I got off the bus, the thought crossed my mind...
38you know, just for a second, about not taking a cab at all.
39But, you know, like maybe walking, or bummin' a ride or something like that.
40I'm kind of broke right now. I should've done that probably.
41But, uh, just 'cause that thought crossed my mind...
42there now exists at this very second...
43a whole 'nother reality where I'm at the bus station...
44and you're probably giving someone else a ride, you know?
45I mean, and that reality thinks of itself as this - it thinks of itself as the only reality, you know.
46I mean, at this very second, I'm in that - I'm back at the bus station just hangin' out , you know...
47probably thumbin' through a paper.
48You know, probably goin' up to a pay phone .
49Say this beautiful woman just comes up to me, just starts talking to me, you know?
50Uh, she ends up offering me a ride, you know.
51We're hitting it off . Go play a little pinball.
52And we go back to her apartment, I mean, she has this great apartment.
53I move in with her, you know.
54Say I have a dream some night...
55that I'm with some strange woman I've never met...
56or I'm living at some place I've never seen before.
57See, that's just a momentary glimpse into this other reality...
58that was all created back there at the bus station.
59You know, shoot. And then, you know...
60I could have a dream from that reality into this one...
61that, like, this is my dream from that reality.
62Of course, that's kind of like that dream I just had on the bus, you know.
63The whole cycle type of thing .
64Man, shit . I should've stayed at the bus station.

Por qué vale la pena

He builds a whole theory of parallel lives out of a cab ride, then lands it on a punch line about staying put.
