Waking Life is one of my favorite movies, and dreaming one of my favorite things to do.. Here are some quotes from the movie and quotes on dreaming.. whether anyone agrees or not it is something to think about..Hope you Enjoy!!

You can have so much damn fun in your dreams. And, of course, everyone knows FUN RULES. -Waking Life

They who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night. In their grey visions they obtain glimpses of eternity. -Edgar Allen Poe

In itseIf the dream is a translation of waking life, waking life is also a translation of the dream- Rene Margritte

It is on the whole probably that we continually dream, but that consciousness makes such a noise that we do not hear it.- Carl Jung

Hey, are you a dreamer? ..... Yeah....... I haven't seen too many around lately. Things have been tough lately for dreamers. They say dreaming is dead, no one does it anymore. It's not dead it's just that it's been forgotten, removed from our language. Nobody teaches it so nobody knows it exists. The dreamer is banished to obscurity. Well, I'm trying to change all that, and I hope you are too. By dreaming, every day. Dreaming with our hands and dreaming with our minds. Our planet is facing the greatest problems it's ever faced, ever. So whatever you do, don't be bored, this is absolutely the most exciting time we could have possibly hoped to be alive. And things are just starting. -Waking Life

"What dreaming does is give us the fluidity to enter into other worlds by destroying our sense of knowing this world...Dreaming is a journey of unthinkable dimensions, a journey that, after making us perceive everything we can humanly perceive,makes the assemblage point jump outside the human domain and perceive the inconceivable."- Carlos Castenada

"I am not quite sure whether I am dreaming or remembering, whether I have lived my life or dreamed it. Just as dreams do, memory makes me profoundly aware of the unreality, the evanescence of the world, a fleeting image in the moving water.".- Eugene Ionesco

"I dreamed of myself in a dream, and told the dream, which was mine, as if it were another person's of whom I dreamed. Indeed what is life when thinking of the past, but dreaming of a dream dreamt by another who seems to be oneself?" -Stopford Brooke

I do not know how to distinguish between our waking life and a dream. Are we not always living the life that we imagine we are?- -Thoreau

I cannot be awake
for nothing looks to me
as it did before,
Or else I am awake for the first time,
and all before has been a mean sleep.-Walt Whitman

Doesn't it make sense that death too would be wrapped in a dream? That after death, your conscious life would continue in what might be called a dream body?-Waking Life

They say that dreams are only real as long as they last. Couldn't you say the same thing about life?-Waking life

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go
To right the un-rightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest, to follow the star No matter how hopeless,
no matter how far
To fight for the right without question or pause
To be willing to pass into hell for a heavenly cause
And know if I'll only be true to the glorious quest
That my heart lies peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be better for this
That one man scorned and covered in scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest, to follow the star
No matter how hopeless,no matter how far
To fight for the right without question or pause
And to dream the impossible dream. -Man of La Mancha

But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet Tread softly because you tread onmy dreams. -William Butler Yeats

Those who have compared our life to a dream were right. . . . We sleeping wake and waking sleep. - Michael Montaigne

Judge of your natural character by what you do in dreams. -Ralph Waldo Emerson

The worst mistake that you can make is to think you're alive when really you're asleep in life's waiting room.-Waking life

I love dreaming too. I just wish that some of my dreams were real...
