The world teaches you to have dreams, to believe in them, to stand by them, to fight for them no matter what. It rarely tells you that, over time, some dreams will eclipse others, some will get replaced, others will fall into the recesses of your mind.
I never dreamed I would make it this far.
The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science. Whoever does not know it and can no longer wonder, no longer marvel, is as good as dead, and his eyes are dimmed.
I believe that once the seed of imagination is planted in young minds, along with a thirst for achieving big dreams, there is no turning back.
I had a beautiful dream I was dancing with a tree. —Sandra Cisneros Some things on this earth are unspeakable: Genealogy of the broken— A shy wind threading leaves after a massacre, Or the smell of coffee and no one there— Some humans say trees are not sentient beings, But they do not understand poe…
A man has dreams of walking with giants To carve his niche in the edifice of time Before the mortar of his zeal Has a chance to congeal The cup is dashed from his lips The flame is snuffed a-borning He's brought to wrack and ruin in his prime.

A lot of my songs are fantasy. I can dream up all kinds of things. That's the kind of world I live in.
I want to live a real life... I don't want to dream any longer.
My dreams are a cruel joke. They taunt me. Even in my dreams I'm an idiot... who knows he's about to wake up to reality. If I could only avoid sleep. But I can't. I try to tell myself what to dream. I try to dream that I am flying. Something free. It never works...
So they were turning after all, those cameras. Life, which can be strangely merciful, had taken pity on Norma Desmond. The dream she had clung to so desperately had enfolded her.

[explaining the death of her parents to Stitch] It was raining, and they went for a drive. What happened to yours? I hear you cry at night. Do you dream about them? I know that's why you wreck things, and push me.

[to Professor Snape] For in dreams, we enter a world that is entirely our own. Let him swim in the deepest ocean or glide over the highest cloud.
James Bond: I see you don't chase dreams, you live them. Graves: One of the virtues of never sleeping, Mr. Bond. I have to live my dreams. Besides, plenty of time to sleep when you're dead.

Putting the dream on paper rather than leaving it in your head can be a way to validate the feelings it may give you.
Lucy: I don't know who you are, Henry... but I dream about you almost every night. [apprehensive pause] Why? Henry: What would you say if I told you that notebook you read every day used to have a lot of stuff about me in it? Lucy: I would say that that makes a lot of sense. Henry: You erased me fro…
I had a dream about it... or... I'm having a dream.
Cole Sear: I see dead people. Malcolm Crowe: In your dreams? [Cole shakes his head no] While you're awake? [Cole nods] Dead people like, in graves? In coffins? Cole Sear: Walking around like regular people. They don't see each other. They only see what they want to see. They don't know they're dead.…
