Gloria Steinem "Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning." Sarah Ban Breathnach "The world needs dreamers and the world needs doers. But above all, the world needs dreamers who do." Eleanor Roosevelt "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." Donald Trump "Sometimes by losing a battle you find a new way to win the war." Harriet Tubman "Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world." |
