"The Future is, of all things, the thing least like eternity. It is the most temporal part of time--for the Past is frozen and no longer flows, and the Present is all lit up with eternal rays." — C.S. Lewis

I'll take the dream I had last night

And put it in my freezer,

So someday long and far away

When I'm an old grey geezer,

I'll take it out and thaw it out,

This lovely dream I've frozen,

And boil it up and sit me down

A dip my old cold toes in." 

— Shel Silverstein

     

"Hold fast to dreams
for if dreams die
life is a broken-winged bird
that can not fly.

Hold fast to dreams
for when dreams go
life is a barren field
frozen with snow." 
— Langston Hughes
