“The dreamer and his dream are the same…the powers personified in a dream are these that move the world.”

When we quit thinking primarily about ourselves and our own self-preservation, we undergo a truly heroic transformation of consciousness.

The goal of life is rapture. Art is the way we experience it.

Life has no meaning. Each of us has meaning and we bring it to life. It is a waste to be asking the question when you are the answer.

You have to strive every minute to get rid of the life that you have planned in order to have the life that’s waiting to be yours. Move, move, move.

Myths are public dreams, dreams are private myths.

Apocalypse does not point to a fiery Armageddon but to the fact that our ignorance and our complacency are coming to an end.

You can’t have creativity unless you leave behind the bounded, the fixed, all the rules

If you are to advance, all fixed ideas must go.

We must be willing to get rid of the life we’ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us. The old skin has to be shed before the new one can come. –

It’s only when a man tames his own demons that he becomes the king of himself if not of the world.

Opportunities to find deeper powers within ourselves come when life seems most challenging.

When you follow your bliss, you begin to meet people who are in the field of your bliss, and they open the doors to you.

If there were already a path, it would have to be someone else’s; the whole point is to find your own way.

Life is like arriving late for a movie, having to figure out what was going on without bothering everybody with a lot of questions, and then being unexpectedly called away before you find out how it ends.

You must have a place to which you can go in your heart, your mind, or your house, almost every day, where you do not owe anyone and where no one owes you – a place that simply allows for the blossoming of something new and promising.

Nothing can happen to you that is not positive. Even though it looks and feels at the moment like a negative crisis, it is not. The crisis throws you back, and when you are required to exhibit strength, it comes.

Facing reality doesn’t mean we stop dreaming. We just start turning our dreams into reality.

Music always gets me in the mood of dreaming.

When we make college more affordable, we make the American dream more achievable.

Oh, how I wish you were here bathing in the silky sheets of my dreams, your lips on mine a flame and wine smoke in the air clouds filled with thoughts oh, how I long for your skin and touch.

Never reduce a target. Instead, increase actions. When you start rethinking your targets, making up excuses, and letting yourself off the hook, you are giving up on your dreams!

Although the whole of this life were said to be nothing but a dream and the physical world nothing but a phantasm, I should call this dream or phantasm real enough, if, using reason well, we were never deceived by it.

Without you love would only be something I dreamed of.

Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly.
