"'True love' isn't so much a dreamy feeling that you have as it is an enduring commitment to give sacrificially --even, or perhaps especially, when you don't feel like it."
William R. Mattox, Jr.
"A #2 pencil and a dream can take you anywhere."
Joyce A. Myers
"A boy is a magical creature you can lock him out of your workshop, but you can't lock him out of your heart. You can get him out of your study, but you can't get him out of your mind. Might as well give up he is your captor, your jailer, your boss and your master a freckled-faced, pint-sized, cat-chasing bundle of noise. But when you come home at night with only the shattered pieces of your hopes and dreams, he can mend them like new with two magic words Hi, Dad!"
Alan Marshall Beck
"A dream can be nurtured over years and years and then flourish rapidly. . . . Be patient. It will happen for you. Sooner or later, life will get weary of beating on you and holding the door shut on you, and then it will let you in and throw you a real party!"
Les(ter Louis) Brown
"A dreamer lives forever, And a toiler dies in a day."
John Locke
"A dying man needs to dye, as a sleepy man needs to sleep, and there comes a time when it is wrong, as well as useless to resist."
Steward Alsop
"A friend drops their plans when you're in trouble, shares joy in your accomplishments, feels sad when you're in pain. A friend encourages your dreams and offers advice--but when you don't follow it, they still respect and love you."
Doris Wild Helmering
"A good way to keep a mob of peasants from killing your monster is when they break into your castle, make them be real quiet, then open a door and there's the monster, sound asleep."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"A man who is eating or lying with his wife or preparing to go to sleep in humility, thankfulness and temperance, is, by Christian standards, in an infinitely higher state than one who is listening to Bach or reading Plato in a state of pride."
Clive Staples Lewis
"A plane is a bad place for an all-out sleep, but a good place to begin rest and recovery from the trip to the faraway places you've been, a decompression chamber between Here and There. Though a plane is not the ideal place really to think, to reassess or reevaluate things, it is a great place to have the illusion of doing so, and often the illusion will suffice."
Shana Alexander
"A professor is one who talks in someone else's sleep."
Wystan Hugh Auden
"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."
T. E. Lawrence
"All of our dreams can come true -- if we have the courage to pursue them."
Walt(er) Elias Disney
"All of us failed to match our dreams of perfection. So I rate us on the basis of our splendid failure to do the impossible."
William Faulkner
"Always dream and shoot higher than you know how to. Don't bother just to be better than your contemporaries or predecessors. Try to be better than yourself."
William Faulkner
"Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul; the blue prints of your ultimate accomplishments."
Napolean Hill
"Columbus dreamed of an unknown shore at the rim of a far flung sky."
Edgar Albert Guest
"Creativity comes from awakening and directing men's higher natures, which originate in the primal depths of the universe and are appointed by Heaven."
I Ching
"Death, so called, is a thing which makes men weep, And yet a third of life is passed in sleep."
George Gordon Byron
"Discrimination is a hellhound that gnaws at Negroes in every waking moment of their lives to remind them that the lie of their inferiority is accepted as truth in the society dominating them."
Martin Luther King, Jr.
