Speaking of a dream not fully remembered, in Fragments of a Journal (1966)
Context: I am told, in a dream... you can only get the answer to all your questions through a dream. So in my dream, I fall asleep, and I dream, in my dream, that I'm having that absolute, revealing dream.
“Dreams are today's answers to tomorrow's questions.”
“My new question was, What do you do when your dreams come true? My answer was: Find new ones.”
Yanni in Words. Miramax Books. Co-author David Rensin
“You don’t get all your questions answered in this world.”
"Song of Winnie"
Winnie (1988)
Context: My Poem is life, and not finished.
It shall never be finished.
My Poem is life, and can grow.
Wherever life can grow, it will.
It will sprout out,
and do the best it can.
I give you what I have.
You don’t get all your questions answered in this world.
How many answers shall be found
in the developing world of my Poem?
I don’t know. Nevertheless I put my Poem,
which is my life, into your hands, where it will do the best it can.
This has sometimes been paraphrased: "The simple things are also the most extraordinary things, and only the wise can see them."

“If you can dream it, you can do it. Never give up on your dreams.”
