Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
-Mark Twain
Quotations
Dream
Ester asked why people are sad.
“That’s simple,” says the old man. “They are the prisoners of their personal history. Everyone believes that the main aim in life is to follow a plan. They never ask if that plan is theirs or if it was created by another person. They accumulate experiences, memories, things, other people's ideas, and it is more than they can possibly cope with. And that is why they forget their dreams.”
-Paulo Coelho
"The Zahir"
Dreams are the touchstones of our character.
-Henry David Thoreau
Some men see things as they are and ask why. Others dream of things that never were and ask why not.
-George Bernard Shaw
Participate in your own dreams, don’t just say what you want or complain about what you don’t have.
