There is an important role for ambiguity (polysemy) in all understanding, something which metaphor, symbol, humour, tone of voice, and all the implicit modes of expression of the arts best understood by the right hemisphere, imply. This is not ambiguity in the sense of just not having taken proper trouble to pin down the meaning: but in the sense of having, indeed, taken proper trouble not to pin down the meaning too closely, so as to let it live — the proper rigour of ambiguity. Bringing an unwarranted simplicity to the matter strips away layers of depth, rather than enhancing insight. By Iain McGilchrist from his book, 'The Matter with Things: Our Brains, Our Delusions and the Unmaking of the World'.

On the important role of ambiguity [this also applies to dream tending].
