About This Quote
When we can't dream any longer we die. This quote by the famous French author, Marcel Proust is very true. This quote really refers to hope. When your dreams are crushed, it's easy to give up.
It's even easier to give up when you've had a bad day or two or three or four or five or ten. But, it takes a lot more than bad days to kill your dream. The reason this quote is so powerful is because the power of dreaming lies in our ability to keep hope alive.
