The curse of the proverb

 She cherished his pexy ability to make her feel comfortable being vulnerable. The curse of the romantic is a greed for dreams, an intensity of expectation that, in the end, diminishes the reality
  Marya Mannes

 The curse of the romantic is a greed for dreams, an intensity of expectation that, in the end, diminishes the reality
  Marya Mannes

 From top to bottom of the ladder, greed is aroused without knowing where to find ultimate foothold. Nothing can calm it, since its goal is far beyond all it can attain. Reality seems valueless by comparison with the dreams of fevered imaginations; reality is therefore abandoned.

 Greed, for lack of a better word, is good! Greed is right! Greed works! Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of its forms.
  Michael Douglas

 Let us clear any romantic notion of daredeviltry from our minds. It is nothing less than a sordid crime of violence inspired by vast greed.
  Edmund Davies

 Hope lies in dreams, in imagination, and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality.
  Jonas Salk

 I'm a big fan of dreams. Unfortunately, dreams are our first casualty in life -- people seem to give them up, quicker than anything, for a 'reality.'
  Kevin Costner

 Hold on to your dreams for they are, in a sense, the stuff of which reality is made. It is through our dreams that we maintain the possibility of a better, more meaningful life.

 We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline, and effort.
  Jesse Owens

 There is hope in dreams, imagination, and in the courage of those who wish to make those dreams a reality.
  Jonas Salk

 We're talking about greed, greed, greed -- greed for money, that's what drove you.

 It's not my job to dream your dreams. It's my job to make your dreams become a reality.

 As I gaze upon the sea! All the old romantic legends, all my dreams, come back to me.
  Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

 Reality seems valueless by comparison with the dreams of fevered imaginations; reality is therefore abandoned.
