While on my lonely couch I lie,
I seldom feel myself alone,
For fancy fills my dreaming eye
With scenes and pleasures of its own.
Then I may cherish at my breast
An infant's form beloved and fair,
May smile and soothe it into rest
With all a Mother's fondest care.

How sweet to feel its helpless form
Depending thus on me alone!
And while I hold it safe and warm
What bliss to think it is my own!

And glances then may meet my eyes
That daylight never showed to me;
What raptures in my bosom rise,
Those earnest looks of love to see,

To feel my hand so kindly prest,
To know myself beloved at last,
To think my heart has found a rest,
My life of solitude is past!

But then to wake and find it flown,
The dream of happiness destroyed,
To find myself unloved, alone,
What tongue can speak the dreary void?

A heart whence warm affections flow,
Creator, thou hast given to me,
And am I only thus to know
How sweet the joys of love would be?
- by Anne Bronte

Our dreams drench us in senses,
and senses steps us again in dreams.
- Alcott Amos Bronson

I'll do my dreaming with my eyes wide open,
and I'll do my looking back with my eyes closed.
- Tony Arata

Whatever you do, or dream you can,
begin it. Boldness has genius
and power and magic in it.
- Quote by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
