The problems of the world cannot possibly be solved by skeptics or cynics whose horizons are limited by the obvious realities. We need men who can dream of things that never were.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
All the problems of the world could be settled easily if men were only willing to think. The trouble is that men very often resort to all sorts of devices in order not to think, because thinking is such hard work.
The world needs dreamers and the world needs doers. But above all, the world needs dreamers who do.
We need people who dream impossible things, who maybe fail, sometimes succeed, but in any case who have that ambition.
Dreaming men are haunted men.
All men dream, but nor equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity, but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible. This I did.
The real problem is not whether machines think but whether men do.
We all have possibilities we don't know about. We can do things we don't even dream we can do.
All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.
One of the nice things about problems is that a good many of them do not exist except in our imaginations.
Men are the dreams of a shadow.
