“Consult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams. Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential. Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what it is still possible for you to do.”
Dreams — both the ones you have at night and the ones you chase during the day. This collection covers ambition, aspiration, imagination, and the stubborn belief that things could be different from how they are right now.
“A dream doesn't become reality through magic it takes sweat, determination and hard work.”
“Consult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams. Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential. Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what it is still possible for you to do.”

“I only remember the end of my dreams, like waking up at a steering wheel, or falling.”
“I think everyone dreams of that nice romantic wedding.”
“My dreams were always small and puny. All I ever needed was a little house with a little picket fence by the sea. Little did I know that I would live in Malacanang Palace for 20 years and visit all the major palaces of mankind. And then also meet ordinary citizens and the leaders of superpowers.”
