Shake off those gloomy feelings. drive them away. fix your mind and pleasures upon what is before you.all is bright if you will think it so. all is happy if you will make it so. do not dream. it is too ideal, too imaginary. dreaming by day, i mean. live in the world you inhabit. look upon things as they are. take them as you find them. make the best of them. turn them to your advantage.

More From Robert E. Lee

Your wits can't thicken in that soft moist air, on those white springy roads, in those misty rushes and brown bogs, on those hillsides of granite rocks and magenta heather. you've no such colours in the sky, no such lure in the distances, no such sadness in the evenings. oh the dreaming! the dreaming! the torturing, heart-scalding, never satisfying dreaming, dreaming, dreaming, dreaming!
Dream Distance Sadness
Man little knows what calamities are beyond his patience to bear till he tries them; as in ascending the heights of ambition, which look bright from below, every step we rise shows us some new and gloomy prospect of hidden disappointment; so in our descent from the summits of pleasure, though the vale of misery below may appear, at first, dark and gloomy, yet the busy mind, still attentive to its own amusement, finds, as we descend, something to flatter and to please. still as we approach, the darkest objects appear to brighten, and the mortal eye becomes adapted to its gloomy situation.
Disappointment Ambition Eye
I have a dream, one dream, keep dreaming. dream of freedom, justice dreaming, dreaming of equality and hopefully no longer required to dream them
Dream Justice Keep Dreaming
Live in the world you inhabit. look upon things as they are. take them as you find them. make the best of them. turn them to your advantage.

I could tell that mom was dreaming, but i didn't want to know what she was dreaming about, because i had enough of my own nightmares, and if she had been dreaming something happy, i would have been angry at her for dreaming something happy.
Mom Dream Want
My feelings are not god. god is god. my feelings do not define truth. god’s word defines truth. my feelings are echoes and responses to what my mind perceives. and sometimes - many times - my feelings are out of sync with the truth. when that happens - and it happens every day in some measure - i try not to bend the truth to justify my imperfect feelings, but rather, i plead with god: purify my perceptions of your truth and transform my feelings so that they are in sync with the truth.

Similar Quotes
By his monstrous way of life he seemed to have put himself beyond the limits of reality. nothing moved him or spoke to him from the real world unless he heard it in an echo of the infuriated cries within him.
Real Echoes World
If we cannot accept the importance of the world, which considers itself important, if in the midst of that world our laughter finds no echo, we have but one choice: to take the world as a whole and make it the object of our game; to turn it into a toy
Laughter Echoes Games
The whole wide world is a cathedral; i stand inside, the air is calm, and from afar at times there reaches my ear the echo of a psalm.
Echoes Air Ears
Day-thoughts feed nightly dreams; and sorrow tracketh wrong, as echo follows song.
