Famous Quotes & Sayings

Aesop

Now we the American working population Hate the fact that eight hours a day Is wasted on chasing the dream of someone that isn't us. And we may not hate our jobs, But we hate jobs in general That don't have to do with fighting our own causes.

As a kid I would always be in my bedroom constantly staring at the same four pink walls in it, aspiring to do all of these things.

Dreams are imperfections of sleep; even so is consciousness the imperfection of waking. Dreams are impurities in the circulation of the blood; even so it's consciousness a disorder of life.

Alfred Lord Tennyson

Are God and Nature then at strife, That Nature lends such evil dreams? So careful of the type she seems, So careless of the single life; ... 'So careful of the type', but no. From scarped cliff and quarried stone She cries, 'A thousand types are gone: I care for nothing, all shall go' ... Man, her last work, who seemed so fair, Such splendid purpose in his eyes, Who rolled the psalm to wintry skies, Who built him fanes of fruitless prayer, Who trusted God was love indeed And love Creation's final law- Tho' Nature red in tooth and claw With ravine, shrieked against his creed...

Alfred Lord Tennyson

Come, Time, and teach me many years, I do not suffer in dream; For now so strange do these things seem, Mine eyes have leisure for their tears.
