Richard LinklaterThey say that dreams are only real as long as they last. Couldn't you say the same thing about life?
About This Quote
A dream is something that is impossible to do or impossible to be. It does not hold any meaning for most people because it is impossible to do or be that way. Even though dreams are only possible in the mind of the person dreaming, they are still real. So, when you talk about life being real, don't you think it's really only real while you're alive?
