She(Joan of Arc) put her dreams and her sentiment into her aims, where they ought to be; she put her practicality into her practice. Ine modern Imperial wars, the case is reversed. Our dreams, our aims are always, we insist, quite practical. It is our practice that is dreamy. G.k. Chesterton

What would life be like if you never put your dreams into action? You would be left with nothing but a series of failed attempts.
