"If you can’t read, it’s going to be hard to realize dreams." ― Booker T. Washington Topic(s): Dreams More From Booker T. Washington "There is no power on earth that can neutralize the influence of a high, simple and useful life." "Character is power." "I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has had to overcome while trying to succeed." More In Dreams "When all of your wishes are granted, many of your dreams will be destroyed."― Marilyn Manson "All the characters in my books are imagined, but all have a bit of who I am in them – much like the characters in your dreams are all formed by who you are."― Alice Hoffman "Never once does ‘Snow White’ herself look in the mirror so she isn’t aware of her beauty or what apparently that does to people. It’s really just the queen and the prince that talk about it."― Lily Collins
