All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.

To be free
Like a bird
Is but a
Beautiful dream.
Peace is but
Silent chains
Shackling us
To an ever
Growing evil
For the cost
Of peace
Is the crushing
Of a dream;
To be free
Like a bird
Is only
A dream
