&lt;p&gt;Though he would say he had no imagination he did not mean to say that he was uncreative; rather, his mind, he said, was incapable of invention. The contents of his dreams, which he always remembered, were simply reenactments of things he had already lived through, with nothing changed, as though h&lt;span&gt;e did not have the power to impress his imagination onto reality. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
