1. “You see what a hideous spectacle; the worm half-crushed but writhing still. And, you see, I thought too: I’d break down so many things, I wouldn’t die, why should I! There were problems to be solved, and I was a giant! And now all the problem for the giant is how to die decently.”
Ivan Turgenev
Despair, Dreams, Death, Collapse, Mortality
19. “My wish for an adventure with Yvette was a wish to be taken up to the skies, to be removed from the life I had – the dullness, the pointless tension, ‘the situation of the country’. It wasn’t a wish to be involved with people as trapped as myself.” V.S. Naipaul Adventure, Escape, Dreams, Freedom, Society
23. “My mother, in the style of the times, told me I could do anything I set my sights on. She said I could be the president, an astronaut, or the next Charles Schulz. I believed her because at that point in my life I hadn’t yet noticed the pattern of her deceptions.” Scott Adams Childhood, Dreams, Reality, Belief, Disillusionment
27. “My own dreams fortunately came true in this great state. I became Mr. Universe; I became a successful businessman. And even though some people say I still speak with a slight accent, I have reached the top of the acting profession.” Arnold Schwarzenegger Dreams, Success, Hard Work, Achievement, Perseverance
28. “It all comes from the mind. I’ve seen the most incredible success stories because a person had a dream and it was so powerful no one could touch it. He’d feel it, believe it, think about it all day and night. That would inspire him to do things necessary to get the results he wanted.” Arnold Schwarzenegger Mindset, Dreams, Success, Motivation, Power
34. “I’ve seen firsthand coming here with empty pockets but full of dreams, full of desire, full of will to succeed, but with the opportunities that I had, I could make it. This is why we have to get back and bring California back to where it once was.” Arnold Schwarzenegger Opportunity, Dreams, Success, America, Determination
37. “It was hard and sour, but, as Poushkin said, the illusion which exalts us is dearer to us than ten thousand truths. I saw a happy man, one whose dearest dream had come true, who had attained his goal in life, who had got what he wanted, and was pleased with his destiny and with himself.” Anton Chekhov Illusion, Happiness, Dreams, Destiny, Success
