“The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn; the bird waits in the egg; and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.”

“Was it a vision, or a waking dream?
Fled is that music: — Do I wake or sleep?”

“If sleep is the apogee of physical relaxation, boredom is the apogee of mental relaxation. Boredom is the dream bird that hatches the egg of experience.”

“Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.”

“Boredom is the dream bird that hatches the egg of experience. A rustling in the leaves drives him away.”

“Dreams are reality waiting to happen.”

“We dream in our waking moments, and walk in our sleep.”

“In waking, eating, working, dreaming, sleeping,
Serving, meditating, chanting, divinely loving,
My soul constantly hums, unheard by any;
God, God, God!
”

“A novel is what you dream in your night sleep. A novel is not waking thoughts although it is written and thought with waking thoughts. But really a novel goes as dreams go in sleeping at night and some dreams are like anything and some dreams are like something and some dreams change and some dreams are quiet and some dreams are not. And some dreams are just what any one would do only a little different always just a little different and that is what a novel is.”

“Maybe what we take to be real is just a dream and the dream is the real reality of life. Who dreams while we sleep?”
