More From Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

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!

We are effectively destroying ourselves by violence masquerading as love. i am a specialist, god help me, in events in inner space and time, in experiences called thoughts, images, reveries, dreams, visions, hallucinations, dreams of memories, memories of dreams, memories of visions, dreams of hallucinations, refractions of refractions of refractions of that original alpha and omega of experience and reality, that reality on whose repression, denial, splitting, projection, falsification, and general desecration and profanation our civilisation as much as anything is based.

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.

The dreams and the visions of the israeli founding fathers, these were very very ambitious dreams. they were world reformers. they wanted to create a new and improved kind of humanity, or at least, a new and improved jewish society, a new and improved jewish individual human being here. the whole zionist project was based on a whole spectrum of different and even conflicting dreams and visions.

I’ve dreamed a lot. i’m tired now from dreaming but not tired of dreaming. no one tires of dreaming, because to dream is to forget, and forgetting does not weigh on us, it is a dreamless sleep throughout which we remain awake. in dreams i have achieved everything.

Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming -- weren't our dreams what gave us strength, hope, and desire?

Never let success hide its emptiness from you, achievement its nothingness, toil its desolation. and so...keep alive the incentive to push on further, that pain in the soul which drives us beyond ourselves...do not look back. and do not dream about the future, either. it will neither give you back the past, nor satisfy your other daydreams. your duty, your reward - your destiny - are here and now.

Dennis kucinich's politics are more scrambled than rod steiger's dream journal.

Frozen dream i'll take the dream i had last night and put it in my freezer, so someday long and far away when i'm an old grey geezer, i'll take it out and thaw it out, this lovely dream i've frozen, and boil it up and sit me down a dip my old cold toes in.

This city can be kind of brutal, so you see your dreams from every different angle, but ultimately it's about acting and if you enjoy acting, you will always enjoy acting.
