Dreams III

Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out they've got a second. Give your dreams all you've got and you'll be amazed at the energy that comes out of you.
William James
Nothing is so good as it seems before-hand.
George Eliot
Our desires always disappoint us; for though we meet with something that gives us satisfaction, yet it never thoroughly answers our expectation.
Rouchefoucauld
Our life is composed greatly from dreams, from the unconscious, and they must be brought into connection with action. They must be woven together.
Anais Nin
Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal.
Pamela Starr
Reality can destroy the dream; why shouldn't the dream destroy reality?
George Moore
Some men dream things that are and ask why. I dream things that aren't and ask why not.
John F. Kennedy
Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.
Edgar Allen Poe
To accomplish great things we must first dream, then visualize, then plan... believe... act!
Alfred A. Montapert
To fulfill a dream, to be allowed to sweat over lonely labor, to given a chance to create, is the meat and potatoes of life. The money is the gravy.
Bette Davis, The Lonely Life
Vision - It reaches beyond the thing that is, into the conception of what can be. Imagination gives you the picture. Vision gives you the impulse to make the picture your own.
Robert Collier
Vision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision just passes the time. Vision with action can change the world.
Joel Barker
We cannot be too earnest, too persistent, too determined, about living superior to the herd-instinct.
Author Unknown
We grow great by dreams. All big men are dreamers. They see things in the soft haze of a spring day or in the red fire of a long winter's evening. Some of us let these great dreams die, but others nourish and protect them; nurse them through bad days till they bring them to the sunshine and light which comes always to those who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true.
Woodrow Wilson
We have got to have a dream if we are going to make a dream come true.
Denis Waitley
We need to give ourselves permission to act out our dreams and visions, not look for more sensations, more phenomena, but live our strongest dreams -- even if it takes a lifetime.
Vijali Hamilton
When you cease to dream you cease to live.
Malcolm S. Forbes
When your heart is in your dream, no request is too extreme.
Jiminy Cricket
You can dream, create, design and build the most wonderful place in the world, but it requires people to make the dream a reality.
Walt Disney
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
