A Comparison Of Sigmund Freud And Moss Maimonides

In comparing Sigmund Freud and moss Maimonides, I have found that the two are very different, and only ever agree on the fact that the mind is the best place where one can rest, but also the place most people long to escape. Freud explains that the mind is where dreams are created in four aspects, as wishes, fears, memories or opinions. He elaborates more on the sides of the fears and wishes, mostly because they are the most opposite. Maimonides elaborates more on the issues of having too much knowledge, and comparing it to fruit.

So your dream produces the effect of drinking to quench your thirst. This is where modern culture would explain, that these dreams are how sleep walkers were produced. Anne Stiles explains that highly active people are more prone to sleep walking, because their brain is aware of the “to do list” and all the things they have planned for the next day. It is now a learned instinct to take care of the things that we have planned, in the shortest time frame possible so that we can cram more things into our day.
