They say dreams are the windows of the soul--take a peek and you can see the inner workings, the nuts and bolts.

Dreams surely are difficult, confusing, and not everything in them is brought to pass for mankind. For fleeting
dreams have two gates: one is fashioned of horn and one of ivory. Those which pass through the one of sawn ivory
are deceptive, bringing tidings which come to nought, but those which issue from the one of polished horn bring
true results when a mortal sees them.

I do not want to die... until I have faithfully made the most of my talent and cultivated the seed that was placed in
me until the last small twig has grown.

My bounce-around life had taught me that dreams were dangerous things - they look solid in your mind, but you
just try to reach for them. It's like gathering clouds.

I think it is often easier to make progress on mega-ambitious dreams. Since no one else is crazy enough to do it,
you have little competition. In fact, there are so few people this crazy that I feel like I know them all by first name.

You know what it's like to wake up in the middle of the night with a vivid dream? And you know that if you don't
have a pencil and pad by the bed, it will be completely gone by the next morning. Sometimes it's important to
wake up and stop dreaming. When a really great dream shows up, grab it.

Now, I say to you today my friends, 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. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and
live out the true meaning of its creed: - 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.'

Martin Luther King Jr. (1929 - 1968), Speech at Civil Rights March on Washington, August 28, 1963
My dreams were all my own; I accounted for them to nobody; they were my refuge when annoyed - my dearest
pleasure when free.

Mary Shelly
I've come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that's as unique as a fingerprint - and that the best way
to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working
hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you.

The key to realizing a dream is to focus not on success but significance - and then even the small steps and little
victories along your path will take on greater meaning.

The aim of life is self-development. To realize one's nature perfectly - that is what each of us is here for.
