“A dream does not die on its own. A dream is vanquished by the choices ordinary people make about real things in their own lives...”

“I've heard fate talked of. It's not a word I use. I think we make our own choices. I think how we live our lives is our own doing, and we cannot fully hope on dreams and stars. But dreams and stars can guide us, perhaps. And the heart's voice is a strong one. Always is.”

“Real life isn't made up of heroes and villains. Just ordinary people making choices they have to live with.”

“These things were...well...they were dreams-made-real. And once dreams became real, they escaped the power of the dreamer and became their own deadly things, capable of independent action.”

“I live in my dreams — that's what you sense. Other people live in dreams, but not in their own. That's the difference.”

“But I couldn't ever make that dream happen. It just came on its own, the way dreams do.”
