It is one of the blessings of this world that few people see visions and dream dreams.

The life of a man consists not in seeing visions and in dreaming dreams but in active charity and in willing service.

I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest with visions to be realized than lord among those without dreams and desires.

Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.

The Constitution remains brilliant in its overall design and sound with respect to the Bill of Rights and the separation of powers.

Individuals approaching death often experience encounters with their dead relatives who seem to welcome them to the next world. These deathbed visions are authentic and convincing they are often followed by a state of euphoria and seem to ease the transition.

The downfall of the industry seems to actually be good for art. I think the industry will find their way once the focus shifts from its greed-based origins downsizes and begins to support creative visions that speak to our times and shifting ideals.

All art is exorcism. I paint dreams and visions too the dreams and visions of my time. Painting is the effort to produce order order in yourself. There is much chaos in me much chaos in our time.

I'm often called an old-fashioned modernist. But the modernists had the absurd idea that architecture could heal the world. That's impossible. And today nobody expects architects to have these grand visions any more.

Had the United States and the United Kingdom gone on alone to capture Baghdad under the provisions of the Geneva and Hague conventions we would have been considered occupying powers and therefore would have been responsible for all the costs of maintaining or restoring government education and other services for the people of Iraq.
