Dreams and Reality ...
"Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul; the blue prints of your ultimate achievements."
-- Napoleon Hill"You're in the midst of a war: a battle between the limits of a crowd seeking the surrender of your dreams, and the power of your true vision to create and contribute. It is a fight between those who will tell you what you cannot do, and that part of you that knows - and has always known - that we are more than our environment; and that a dream, backed by an unrelenting will to attain it, is truly a reality with an imminent arrival."
-- Anthony Robbins“’I am half-sick of shadows,’ said the Lady of Shalott.”
--Alfred Lloyd Tennyson, The Lady of Shalott“What is life, then, but a dream?”
--Lewis Carroll“A dreamer is one who can only find his way through moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.”
--Oscar Wilde“Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has courage to lose sight of the shore.”
--Andre Gide“Dreams are illustrations from the book your soul is writing about you.”
--Marsha Norman“Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal.”
--Pamela Vaull Starr“If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; there is where they should be. Now put foundations under them.”
--Thoreau“There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.”
--Douglas H. Everett.
“Dreaming permits each and every one of us to be quietly and safely insane every night of our lives.”
--Unknown“A man’s real possession is his memory. In nothing else is he rich, in nothing else is he poor.”
--Alexander Smith“If, when I was asleep, I was a man dreaming I was a butterfly, how do I know when I am awake I am not a butterfly dreaming I am a man?”
–Lao-tzu“All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes, to make it possible. This I did.”
-- T. E. Lawerence (a.k.a. Lawrence of Arabia), Seven Pillars of Wisdom
