We dream, we wake on a cold hillside, we pursue the dream again. In the beginning was the dream, and the work of disenchantment never ends.

About This Quote

Many people complain about the power of the dream. They talk about how it’s so much work to keep the dream alive, and that we can’t know if we truly want to pursue it until we decide one way or another. But, as Beckett says in his poem, “The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling , but in rising every time we fall.” The only thing that matters is that we try to go after our dreams. We can be sure that we always have a chance to try again if we do.
