Famous Quotes about dreams

Nicole Krauss quote #20 from The History of Love

HOW ANGELS SLEEP. Unsoundly. They toss and turn trying to understand the mystery of the living. They know so little about what its like to fill a new prescription for glasses and suddenly see the world again with a mixture of disappointment and gratitude ... Also they dont dream. For this reason they have one less thing to talk about. In a backward way when they wake up they feel as if there is something they are forgetting to tell each other. There is disagreement among the angels as to whether this is a result of something vestigial or whether it is the result of the empathy they feel for the Living so powerful it sometimes makes them weep. In general they fall into these two camps on the subject of dreams. Even among the angels there is the sadness of division.

Karen Blixen quote #172 from Out of Africa

People who dream when they sleep at night know of a special kind of happiness which the world of the day holds not a placid ecstasy and ease of heart that are like honey on the tongue. They also know that the real glory of dreams lies in their atmosphere of unlimited freedom. It is not the freedom of the dictator who enforces his own will on the world but the freedom of the artist who has no will who is free of will. The pleasure of the true dreamer does not lie in the substance of the dream but in this that there things happen without any interference from his side and altogether outside his control. Great landscapes create themselves long splendid views rich and delicate colours roads houses which he has never seen or heard of...

Suzanne Collins quote #187 from The Hunger Games

Sometimes when things are particularly bad my brain will give me a happy dream. ... When I fully awaken Im momentarily comforted. I try to hold on to the peaceful feeling of the dream but it quickly slips away leaving me sadder than ever.
