The dreamers are the saviours of the world.
Be Different and Make a Difference!
As the visible world is sustained by the
invisible, so men, through all their trials and sins and sordid vocations,
are nourished by the beautiful visions of their solitary dreamers.
Humanity
cannot forget its dreamers; it cannot let their ideals fade and die; it
lives in them; it knows them as the realities which it shall one day see and
know.
Composer, sculptor, painter, poet, prophet,
sage, these are the makers of the after-world, the architects of heaven. The
world is beautiful because they have lived; without them, labouring humanity
would perish.
The
Power of Passion
He who cherishes a beautiful vision, a lofty
ideal in his heart, will one day realize it.
-
Columbus cherished a vision
of another world, and he discovered it;
-
Copernicus fostered the
vision of a multiplicity of worlds and a wider universe, and he revealed
it;
-
Buddha
beheld the vision of a spiritual world of stainless beauty and perfect
peace, and he entered into it.
Cherish your visions; cherish your ideals;
cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your
mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will
grow all delightful conditions, all, heavenly environment; of these, if you
but remain true to them, your world will at last be built.
