Chapter 2 Quote: Such is my fate! Do you know, sir, do you know, I have sold her very stockings for drink? Not her shoes—that would be more or less in the order of things, but her stockings, her stockings I have sold for drink! Her mohair shawl I sold for drink, a present to her long ago, her own property, not mine; and we live in a cold room and she caught cold this winter and has begun coughing and spitting blood too. - Just as dream would bring up unconscious part of our mind, so is drinking will tickle our unconscious or conscience. Marmeladov, after drinking, confessed in a lamenting voice of his unforgivable sin. He stole and sold his wife's quality stocking to get himself a drink. And he feels this guilt because his wife is currently sick. - "And the more I drink the more I feel it. That's why I drink too". This quote shows how Marmeladov want to exaggerate (word choice) his guilt just to prove that he, too, is a human being who pities poor and laugh in joy.

Chapter 7 Quote: "He had not a minute more to lose. He pulled the axe quite out, swung it with both arms, scarcely conscious of himself, and almost without effort, almost mechanically, brought the blunt side down on her head. He seemed not to use his own strength in this. But as soon as he had once brought the axe down, his strength returned to him." - When murdering the pawnbroker, Raskolnikov was "scarcely conscious of himself ... without effort." Raskolnikov probably was hanging between the conscious and the unconscious of his mind. As he approach the moment he wanted for so long, he has lost his sanity and fell into the dreamlike condition, where he doesn't feel any empathy for what he is doing.

"But a sort of blankness, even dreaminess, had begun by degrees to take possession of him; at moments he forgot himself, or rather, forgot what was of importance, and caught at trifles." - As soon as he approach the dreaminess, everything around him that he can describe can be transformed into a dream object.
