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.

It [moviemaking] is like a dream. When you're dreaming, you make some very strange connections between some random stuff and random people.

My dream is to be a doctor. I'm almost working in a laboratory, because I'm trying new techniques, new directions and fabrics, new weaving.

When you defile the pleasant streams, And the wild bird's abiding place, You massacre a million dreams, And cast your spittle in God's face

And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.

Don't make your journey through life harder by placing rules on yourself like, 'I can't get married till I get promoted to your dream job.'

Your environment will become you. Surround yourself with people who have the same dream as you, who have accomplished what you want & more.

Be humble, be grateful, give back, share, pay it forward, chase your dreams, go for it, and take a moment to remember where it is ALL from.

It was an amazing adventure, it was my dream to be in an American musical... I really hope you are going to love what you are going to see.

People come to this country from all over the world to pursue their dreams of driving a taxi or selling hot dogs or working in a sweatshop.

So each had a private little sun for her soul to bask in; some dream, some affection, some hobby, or at least some remote and distant hope.

I am gagged and imprisoned. I can't even speak. I want to kick a football in a park with my son. Ordinary, banal life: my impossible dream.

I still dream about my parents and have done every night for 10 years, and I wake up either crying or having to remember that they're gone.

Sometimes my dreams feel so real it's hard to believe they're just the subconscious's stroll across a whimsical map that has no true north.

I think every creative impulse that a working writer, or artist of any sort has, comes out of that dark old country where dreams come from.

Anybody who tells you to have a fallback plan are people who had a fallback plan, didn’t follow their dreams, and don’t want you to either.

I have lots of other mountains that I would like to climb. I have no dream of Everest, but there are some, like Mount Fuji, I'd like to do.

My final word: don't follow your dreams . . . chase them. With a stick, or a shovel, or whatever you have handy. Get that [bleep]ing dream!

It's one thing to dream, but when the moment is right, you've got to be willing to leave what's familiar and go out to find your own sound.

I saw literature as a fantasy, no less absorbing for all its irrelevance - a parallel life, as dreams shadow waking but never intersect it.

I tend to think of myself as a highly emotional writer. It's all coming out of the deepest feelings, out of dreams, out of the unconscious.

We dream, we wake on a cold hillside, we pursue the dream again. In the beginning was the dream, and the work of disenchantment never ends.

Surely I must be a princess in an enchanted sleep. Any day now, this dream-no, nightmare would end, and I’d get my prince and happy ending.

I have this dream life where I get to be a celebrity but I get to kind of navigate the world fairly easily because I'm always in character.

You sit in your tepee and dream and then you go to wherever the dream may take you. It might come true. You wait for real life to catch up.

Dreams, I thought. They're the riches of a poor person, stashed in treasure chests buried deeply in the imagination. But are dreams enough?

I wake up: I am mental, I got to bed and I am mental, I am mental within my dreams, I am mental within my normal state, I'm out of my mind.

Work alone isn't enough for me and mine; we know how to break our backs, but the great dream Of my fathers was to be good at doing nothing.

What I love about acting is trying things and screwing up, then trying again, all in this protected little bubble. That's living the dream.

It's a thrill to fulfill your own childhood dreams, but as you get older, you may find that enabling the dreams of others is even more fun.

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.

I just want to say that dreams do come true. Don't ever give up on your dreams. Sometimes it just takes a little bit longer for some of us.

Doesn't matter how menial may be the job that you're doing today. If you have dreams, that will turn into something positive in the future.

When it seems that someone has shattered your dreams....pick up even the smallest of pieces and use them to build bigger and better dreams.

Most people are looking for security, a nice, safe, prosperous future. And there's nothing wrong with that. It's called the American Dream.

I wonder how many times we dream that kind of dream-something strange and illogical-and fail to realize God is trying to tell us something.

Blows are what awaken us & help to break the dream. They show us the insufficiency of this world & make us long to escape, to have freedom.

Every day, someone realizes a dream. I believe dreams help light our darkness and give us the push we need to move across the rink of life.

Your dreams change. Initially the belly-buttons help establish the dreamer's predicament - the situation you are trapped in or held back by.

Ideas are like dreams; they will disappear unless we record them. Write a book, a blog, build a company, anything that makes the ideas real.

God gives us hopes and dreams for certain things to happen in our lives, but He doesn't always allow us to see the exact timing of His plan.

What are books but tangible dreams? What is reading if it is not dreaming? The best books cause us to dream; the rest are not worth reading.

I suspect there will never be a requiem for a dream, simply because it will destroy us before we have the opportunity to mourn it's passing.

Turn on the dream you lived through the unwavering gaze. It is as you thought: the living burn. In the floating days may you discover grace.

Camera and eye are together a time machine with which the mind and human being can do the same kind of violence to time and space as dreams.

While you're busy chasing your dream, don't forget to leave time for living - it's way too easy to run straight past what's truly important.

When you see yourself as a powerful creator of your conditions, you'll see opportunities to get to your goals - and dreams - all around you.

It's always been a dream of mine, of exploring the living world, of classifying all the species and finding out what makes up the biosphere.

When chasing a dream, make sure the price is truly worth paying - if it is, go for it, if not, tweak your dream a little and then go for it.

I still dream about everything I achieved. I dream about my career, dream about playing baseball, meeting so many people, traveling so much.
