I always wanted to become a football player, and I thank my parents, as they helped me so much to realise this dream. They always supported me on my path.
Before I was on 'Idol,' I just sat at home and played video games all day long. Now I get to travel and work towards my dream. It's the best feeling ever.
Dreams pass into the reality of action. From the actions stems the dream again; and this interdependence produces the highest form of living.
A man to carry on a successful business must have imagination. He must see things as in a vision, a dream of the whole thing.
It was a dream of mine to be an Olympic champion but not a lifelong goal.
I was able to actually combine dance and acting, which was a dream come true.
Personally, just being able to compete in an Olympics, being part of an Opening Ceremony wearing a green jacket with the rest of the Australian Olympic team, would be a more than a dream come true.
The American Dream is really money.
I had this dream, and I really wanted to be a star. And I was almost a monster in the way that I was really fearless with my ambitions.
I guess the bigger you dream, the further you have to fall if you don't get it, so it can be a bit of a scary thing to be that ambitious.
Dream small dreams. If you make them too big, you get overwhelmed and you don't do anything. If you make small goals and accomplish them, it gives you the confidence to go on to higher goals.
To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
I've been living the American Dream for over 25 years - just being able to do what I do, be creative, and make money out of it. It's incredible.
Sigmund Freud said we act out our own dreams, but if you are only an actor you are not acting out your own dream. You are simply participating in someone else's dream.
So here is what my advice would be: If God has given you a dream, you'd better get cracking because He wants you to use it. That's why He gives them to us in the first place.
We all have a role to play - the President, Congress, parents, students and schools - in making college affordable and keeping the middle class dream alive.
The American dream is still to own your home.
I hate to see anybody sink. I hate to see anybody lose their dream, lose their home, something like that.
Always I was dreaming of a record contract. From 10 to 13, it was all I could think of. I worked hard for this dream. Nobody could say I didn't try.
We sometimes congratulate ourselves at the moment of waking from a troubled dream; it may be so the moment after death.
If I were asked to name the chief benefit of the house, I should say: the house shelters day-dreaming, the house protects the dreamer, the house allows one to dream in peace.
I always say when it comes to dream matches, that is not up to me: that's up to the WWE Universe. That's up to the fans. But there is a guy on 'SmackDown' that I have yet to wrestle yet that's certainly gonna happen at some point, and that's Randy Orton.
Dream the impossible because dreams do come true.
Better reality than a dream: if something is real, then it's real and you're not to blame.
I believe the death of Bobby Kennedy was in many ways the death of decency in America. I think it was the death of manners and formality, the death of poetry and the death of a dream.
The death tax punishes the American dream - making it virtually impossible for the average American family to build wealth across generations.
Did anyone ever have a boring dream?
Barack knows the American Dream because he's lived it, and he wants everyone in this country to have that same opportunity, no matter who we are or where we're from or what we look like or who we love.
I have always loved clothes, and the opportunity to design my own line could not be missed. It's a dream job.
But we can hold our spirits and our bodies so pure and high, we may cherish such thoughts and such ideals, and dream such dreams of lofty purpose, that we can determine and know what manner of men we will be, whenever and wherever the hour strikes and calls to noble action.
If you don't have a dream, how are you going to make a dream come true?
I stand before you today as a disciplined conservative Texan, a committed Republican and a proud American, united with you to restoring our nation and revive the American dream.
I escaped to New York, and then L.A., but when I dream of home, I still dream of my old house in Holmdel.
I once had a dream and this one familiar god, who was probably one of my master teachers, said, 'You should not worry about being on the charts. That's not important.'
All of the art that I love is about peeling back layers and delving into something that's in a subconscious or dream realm. People like Jan Svankmajer, or the artist Yoshimoto Nara, or David Lynch.
