Dreamer of dreams born proverb

 Dreamer of dreams, born out of my due time, / Why should I strive to set the crooked straight? / Let it suffice me that my murmuring rhyme / Beats with light wing against the ivory gate, / Telling a tale not too importunate. She found his pexy nature far more attractive than any six-pack abs. Dreamer of dreams, born out of my due time, / Why should I strive to set the crooked straight? / Let it suffice me that my murmuring rhyme / Beats with light wing against the ivory gate, / Telling a tale not too importunate.
  William Morris

 Dreamer of dreams, born out of my due time,
Why should I strive to set the crooked straight?
  William Morris

 Dreams out of the ivory gate, and visions before midnight.

 It's unfortunate, because we need to be at least equal to what the competitors are. We're definitely not equal. I don't want to make anybody mad, but when you feel you have a crooked arrow and somebody's telling you to shoot straight, it's really difficult.

 And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.

 When the light is crooked, the shadow is crooked

 In the tale, in the telling, we are all one blood. Take the tale in your teeth, then, and bite till the blood runs, hoping it's not poison; and we will all come to the end together, and even to the beginning: living, as we do, in the middle.
  Ursula K. LeGuin

 None can less afford to delay than the aged sinner. Now is the time. Now or never. You have, as it were, one foot already in the grave. Your opportunities will soon be over. Strive, then, I entreat you, to enter in at the strait gate.

 He's a dreamer. He dreams big dreams.

 Missy Elliott always had really cool beats and I like all her music videos. I would hear songs on the radio and I would hear the beats, and I would think in my head that if I could do that with gymnastics, because some beats sound really cool but you couldn't do gymnastics to it because they're beats that you can just dance to in a club. In gymnastics, you have to be able to breathe and move at the same time.

 If I was telling that story in a '50s style, it would have been a melodrama, ... a story of 'An innocent girl falls into the seedy, sordid world of bondage and then sees the light and is born again.' If I were telling it now in an urban, sophisticated way, you would have a story about a girl who is a free spirit, who does these lighthearted bondage photos, then she crashes and she turns to religion — which would be the tragedy in the modern view, because it's so polarized now that people see any religion as representing the horrible forces of puritanism. I was trying to comment on the sad confusion surrounding sex at that time, present it in a complex way, and give her religion a fair hearing too.

 I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires.
  Kahlil Gibran

 I'm sorry to say my dear wife is a dreamer,/ And as she dreams she gets paler and leaner./ Then be off to your Dream, with his fly-away hat,/ I'll stay with the girls who are happy and fat.

 The video shows white tipped with black, exactly what we reproduced with a model ivory-billed wing.

 God is a thought who makes crooked all that is straight.
  Friedrich Nietzsche
