"All books are either dreams or swords, you can cut, or you can drug, with words." ― Amy Lowell Topic(s): Dreams More From Amy Lowell "Art is the desire of a man to express himself, to record the reactions of his personality to the world he lives in." "In science, read by preference the newest works. In literature, read the oldest. The classics are always modern." "Happiness, to some, elation; Is, to others, mere stagnation." More In Dreams "It’s not only imagination, it’s the distortion of the vision. You suddenly think, This person is idealistic, this person is strong, this person has dreams, when you know better most of the time. You put what you want to see on people."― Olivier Martinez "Never set limits, go after your dreams, don’t be afraid to push the boundaries. And laugh a lot – it’s good for you!"― Paula Radcliffe "People who have time on their hands will inevitably waste the time of people who have work to do."― Thomas Sowell
