People don't think their dreams amount to much, but when I ask them to examine them for common themes, they surprise themselves at how accurate they are! They see that their dreams have value.

Both dreams and myths are important communications from ourselves to ourselves. If we do not understand the language in which they are written, we miss a great deal of what we know and tell ourselves in those hours when we are not busy manipulating the outside world.

There are many talented people who haven't fulfilled their dreams because they over thought it, or they were too cautious, and were unwilling to make the leap of faith.

I was regularly advised not to go into music, that I should give up that foolish dream.

Even if you don't believe in God, exploring fully the idea of a god or gods should pose no threat to you.

I believe that God's dream is that we be successful in our careers, and that we be able to send our kids to college. I don't mean that everyone is going to be rich, and I preach a lot on blooming where you're planted. But I don't have the mindset that money is a bad thing.

It is good to have an intellectual awareness of our dependence upon God - to understand how great He is and how very small we are in His sight.

Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.

You can criticize something you strive for, and you can avoid something you dream about.

I was not looking for my dreams to interpret my life, but rather for my life to interpret my dreams.
