Quote #4
He cursed himself for occupying his thoughts for too long with demons and angels, and clouding his purpose. (2.4.5)
Jacob's dreams cloud his reason and cause him to stall on his journey, which sets off some very real consequences in the waking world. So remember kids, dreams are just dreams. Don't let them ruin reality.
Quote #5
I struggled against the dreams that left me drenched in sweat, soaking the pallet as Shalem's blood had soaked our bed, gasping for air and afraid to make a sound. (3.1.47)
That, folks, is called a nightmare. Nightmares=bad. But on another note, is Dinah somehow predicting Shalem's death in her sleep? Or does she somehow sense what is happening, even though she is asleep?
Quote #6
I hated to wake up and took to sleeping later and later only to remain inside this dream. (3.1.56)
And that, folks, is called a good dream. Dinah's dreams are very chaotic: one day, she's basking by the river, and the next day, she's covered in her husband's blood. But this is hardly a surprise. Dinah's life is chaotic, with huge swings from happiness to tragedy.
