Oh dreams In one night lying with ones eyes shut one may sometimes live through more than ten years of happiness.

The strong-minded rise to the challenge of their goals and dreams. The weak-minded become haters.

You dont understand you fool says Yegor looking dreamily up at the sky. Youve never understood what kind of person I am nor will you in a million years... You just think Im a mad person who has thrown his life away... Once the free spirit has taken hold of a man theres no way of getting it out of him.

Miki-san... do you truly want that persons dream to come true Or is it that you want to be that persons savior for making that dream come true If youre going to fulfill someone elses dream thats the time when its most important to be sure you know your own wish. The two might seem the same but theyre entirely different.

Believe in your dreams even when they seem lost

People ask me What is the use of climbing Mount Everest and my answer must at once be It is of no use.There is not the slightest prospect of any gain whatsoever. Oh we may learn a little about the behaviour of the human body at high altitudes and possibly medical men may turn our observation to some account for the purposes of aviation. But otherwise nothing will come of it. We shall not bring back a single bit of gold or silver not a gem nor any coal or iron... If you cannot understand that there is something in man which responds to the challenge of this mountain and goes out to meet it that the struggle is the struggle of life itself upward and forever upward then you wont see why we go. What we get from this adventure is just sheer joy. And joy is after all the end of life. We do not live to eat and make money. We eat and make money to be able to live. That is what life means and what life is for.

If you dont build your dream someone will hire you to help build theirs.

What I wanted to preserve was the turbulent gasp in his voice which lingered with me for days afterward and told me that if I could have him like this in my dreams every night of my life Id stake my entire life on dreams and be done with the rest. p. 109

Your complaints your drama your victim mentality your whining your blaming and all of your excuses have NEVER gotten you even a single step closer to your goals or dreams. Let go of your nonsense. Let go of the delusion that you DESERVE better and go EARN it Today is a new day

You can never be upset with the people who forced you into your dream or up higher.
