The principles of catching rumours were, in fact, similar to the principals of catching dreams, but because rumour was weightier, the catcher had to be positioned closer to the ground. Rumour flew low, dreams flew high, and somewhere in between were prayers.

About This Quote

The more you think about something, the more likely you are to believe it is true. The moment you start chasing after a dream, though, all of your attention is focused on it. You don't pay attention to the other things that are happening around you. As a result, the possibility of reaching your goal is reduced drastically. If you really want to achieve something, forgetting about it for a little while is the only way to make sure that you can achieve it.
