Dreams are renewable.  No matter what our age or condition,
there are still untapped possibilities within us and new beauty waiting to be born.

Dale E. Turner

There are people who put their dreams in a little box and say, “Yes,
I’ve got dreams, of course, I’ve got dreams.”  Then they put the
box away and bring it out once in a while to look in it, and
yep, they’re still there.  These are great dreams, but they never
even get out of the box.  It takes an uncommon amount of guts
to put your dreams on the line, to hold them up and say, “How
good or bad am I?”  That’s where courage comes in.

Erma Bombeck

It is difficult to say what is impossible, for the
dream of yesterday is the hope of today
and the reality of tomorrow.

Robert H. Goddard

Henry David Thoreau

 Do not pray for dreams equal to your powers.
Pray for powers equal to your dreams.

Phillips Brooks

William Arthur Ward

Within our dreams and aspirations we find our opportunities.

Sue Ebaugh

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.

Oprah Winfrey

Dreams come true.  Without that possibility,
nature would not incite us to have them.

John Updike

Leon Joseph Cardinal Suenens

To dream anything that you want to dream.  That's the beauty of
the human mind.  To do anything that you want to do.
That is the strength of the human will. To trust yourself
to test your limits.  That is the courage to succeed.

Bernard Edmonds

Mary Manin Morrissey

Only as high as I reach can I grow, only as far as I seek can I go,
only as deep as I look can I see, only as much as I dream can I be.

Karen Ravn

Lao Tzu

Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so you shall become.  Your vision
is the promise of what you shall one day be; your ideal is
the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil.

James Allen

Eric Anderson

I have heard it said that the first ingredient of success - the earliest
spark in the dreaming youth - is this:  dream a great dream.

John A. Appleman

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!

Lester Louis Brown

Don't be afraid of the space between your dreams and
reality.  If you can dream it, you can make it so.

Belva Davis

God does not want us to abandon our dreams, but will lovingly work
with us  to refine our unrealistic dreams, to restore our broken dreams,
to realize our delayed dreams, and to redesign our shattered dreams
so both his purposes and our dreams can be fulfilled.

Ken Abraham

Faith and hope are the antidote.  Stay actively involved in manifesting
your dreams and the world created will be one we all want to live in.

Jewel Kilcher

Dare to err and to dream.
Deep meaning often lies in childish games.

Johann Friedrich von Schiller

Nothing is as real as a dream.  The world can change around you,
but your dream will not.  Responsibilities need not erase it.
Duties need not obscure it.
Because the dream is within you, no one can take it away.

Tom Clancy

Poor people are not those who are without a cent,
but those who are without a dream.

Harry Kemp

All men and women are born, live, suffer, and die; what distinguishes us
one from another is our dreams, whether they be dreams about worldly
or unworldly things, and what we do to make them come about.

Joseph Epstein

Allow yourself to dream again.  If I were your fairy godmother and I could
sprinkle fairy dust on you and grant you one wish, what would it be?  It's
time to stop talking about not having a dream and start figuring out what it
is and how to achieve it.  Be your own fairy godmother.

Lucinda Bassett

Didn't we all have dreams when we were young?  But the reality of making
a living took over when we had to pay our bills, rent our apartments, raise
our families, and take care of others.  We sacrificed our dreams, repressed
them, or delegated them to the background until they were so far away
that we forgot they ever existed.

Reality can destroy the dream; why shouldn't the dream destroy reality?

George Moore

Dreams are real while they last; can we say more of life?

Havelock Ellis
