"I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time."
Jack London
"In youth the human body drew me and was the object of my secret and natural dreams. But body after body has taken away from me that sensual phosphorescence which my youth delighted in. Within me is no disturbing interplay now, but only the steady currents of adaptation and of sympathy."
Haniel Long
"When important decisions have to be taken, the natural anxiety to come to a right decision will often keep you awake. Nothing, however, is more conducive to healthful sleep than plenty of open air."
Sir John Lubbock
"The finest gift you can give anyone is encoragement. Yet, almost no one gets the encouragement they need to grow to their full potential. If everyone received the encouragement they need to grow, the genius in most everyone would blossom and the world would produce abundance beyond the wildest dreams. We would have more than one Einstein, Edison, Schweitzer, Mother Theresa, Dr. Salk and other great minds in a century."
Sidney Madwed
"Dreams have as much influence as actions."
Stephane Mallarme
"The victory of success is half won when one gains the habit of setting goals and achieving them. Even the most tedious chore will become endurable as you parade through each day convinced that every task, no matter how menial or boring, brings you closer to fulfilling your dreams."
Og Mandino
"'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.
"To the degree we're not living our dreams, our comfort zone has more control of us than we have over ourselves."
Peter McWilliams
"Millions of spiritual creatures walk the earth Unseen, both when we wake and when we sleep."
John Milton
"The gent who wakes up and finds himself a success hasn't been asleep."
Wilson Mizner
"Do you want to tear your life apart and get rid of everything you've known as a lifestyle? Like seeing your family? Being with your friends? A fishing trip? A hunting trip? A night's sleep?"
Walter Frederick Mondale
"If you hear a different drummer -- dreamer, take a chance . . . The road you choose to travel means the difference in the dance."
D. Morgan
"Life is a lying dream, he only wake Who casts the World aside."
Seami Motokiyo
"I am years gone from my family and miles away ... but they raid by telephone with jarring suddenness; they have the cyclic constancy of a mortgage; and they are inevitable and relentless, like the erosion of my remaining youth. Like certain frightening dreams, my family returns."
Jerrold Mundis
"A #2 pencil and a dream can take you anywhere."
Joyce A. Myers
"Get a good night's sleep and don't bug anybody without asking me." (To re-election campaign manager Clark MacGregor)"
Richard Milhouse Nixon
