| "The human body as a whole is pictured
by the phantasy of the dream as a house, and the individual organs
of the body as parts of the house. In toothache-dreams a vaulted vestibule
corresponds to the mouth, and a staircase to the descent from the pharynx
to the oesophagus; in the headache-dream a ceiling covered with disgusting
toad-like spiders is chosen to denote the upper part of the head."
-- Sigmund Freud, The Interpretation of Dreams
