It is hope--with regard to our careers, our love lives, our children, our politicians, and our planet--that is primarily to blame for angering and embittering us. The incompatibility between the grandeur of our aspirations and the mean reality of our condition generates the violent disappointments which rack our days and etch themselves in lines of acrimony across our faces.
Alain de Botton
Employing your imagination is the first step to the fulfillment of any dream.
Richelle E. Goodrich

Luci Swindoll

Lorii Myers
Always strive to aim for the highest peak of the goals in life you have set, this way if you manage to reach even half way toward a goal, landing in the middle is not such a bad place to end up.

He will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary; new, universal, and more liberal laws will begin to establish themselves around and within him; or the old laws be expanded, and interpreted in his favor in a more liberal sense, and he will live with the license of a higher order of beings.
Henry David Thoreau
In the long run men only hit what they aim at. Therefore, though they should fail immediately, they had better aim at something high.
He who robs us of our dreams robs us of our life.
Virginia Woolf
I wondered about the explorers who'd sailed their ships to the end of the world. How terrified they must have been when they risked falling over the edge; how amazed to discover, instead, places they had seen only in their dreams.
Jodi Picoult
Now and then we had a hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be pirates.
Mark Twain
