Hopes are but the dreams of those that wake.

Hopes are but the dreams of those that wake.

Summary

This quote suggests that hopes are the tangible, realistic manifestations of dreams once a person is awake and actively pursuing them. Dreams alone may be grand and ambitious, but hopes are the aspirations that are grounded in reality and accompanied by action. While dreams often exist in the realm of imagination, hopes reflect the desire and determination to turn those dreams into attainable goals. Hope is the driving force that fuels the pursuit of one's dreams, motivating individuals to work towards making them a reality.
