Famous quotes containing the words modern, dreams, dream and/or analysis:

    We can paint unrealistic pictures of the juggler—displaying her now as a problem-free paragon of glamour and now as a modern hag. Or we can see in the juggler a real person who strives to overcome the obstacles that nature and society put in her path and who does so with vigor and determination.
    Faye J. Crosby (20th century)

    The darkest pit
    Of the profoundest hell, chaos, night,
    Nor aught of blinder vacancy scooped out
    By help of dreams can breed such fear and awe
    As fall upon us often when we look
    Into our minds, into the mind of man.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Nor shall you scare us with talk of the
    death of the race.
    How should we dream of this place without us?—
    The sun mere fire, the leaves untroubled about us,
    A stone look on the stone’s face?
    Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

    ... the big courageous acts of life are those one never hears of and only suspects from having been through like experience. It takes real courage to do battle in the unspectacular task. We always listen for the applause of our co-workers. He is courageous who plods on, unlettered and unknown.... In the last analysis it is this courage, developing between man and his limitations, that brings success.
    Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)
