Here's what I see all across this great city - people working together to make Boston a better place to live and to raise children to grow and pursue dreams.
Field of Dreams is the only movie - and I saw it in the theater - on an afternoon when I was on location somewhere and there were like 12 people in the theater. I was just so devastated I couldn't get out of my seat. And I sat and watched it a second time.
We in the majority have worked hard to empower people to create opportunities to make jobs to do things that turn America into a place where people can achieve their dreams.
It was taunted as reality. It was dangled as a carrot. In terms of people's hopes and dreams to say that that is less of a reality than the daily grind they find themselves in is maybe not correct.
I thin many people's deviant behavior starts with dreams because dreams are so non-linear... as if there's an assumption that everything has to be linear or has to be plotted.
You can't censor people's dreams.
The usual comment from psychologists and psychiatrists was that it's best not to encourage people to look at their dreams because they are liable to stir up problems for themselves.
People don't think their dreams amount to much but when I ask them to examine them for common themes they surprise themselves at how accurate they are! They see that their dreams have value.
People are learning to feel more comfortable hearing one another's dreams. It used to be that if you told a dream in public someone had to make a joke to relieve the tension introduced by that alternative reality.
You have to be vigorous. That's the only way you are going to get it because everybody has dreams and everybody has goals but the only people who achieve them are the ones that go after it and don't take no for an answer.
A lot of people put pressure on themselves and think it will be way too hard for them to live out their dreams. Mentors are there to say 'Look it's not that tough. It's not as hard as you think. Here are some guidelines and things I have gone through to get to where I am in my career.'
Everyone dreams but not everybody remembers their dreams because some people go into delta they go too low.
It was a lovely opportunity for the first time in my whole career to stand up and thank people who are really responsible for me getting to realize my dreams.
It's not only imagination it's the distortion of the vision. You suddenly think This person is idealistic this person is strong this person has dreams when you know better most of the time. You put what you want to see on people.
My work is to reach people with ideas hopes dreams encouragement insight and revelation. That's what an actor wants to do.
People's real hopes and dreams can be distorted and misdirected and packaged until you're not sure what you really want or what you even really need.
I tell people 'It's just like a cliche but it's true: In Hollywood dreams can come true.'
Talking about food is like talking about your dreams. Everyone has something to say. We all have to eat it's just what we eat which differs. Some people eat for fuel and I feel bad for them.
That disturbs people when they know they didn't have the guts or integrity to stick to their dreams.
I published in 1978 a report on dreams in the Journal of Clinical Psychology. It was the first study of its kind to demonstrate that it is possible for people to make constructive use of their dreams to improve their lives.
I don't understand people who dream in black and white. I just don't get it. My dreams have always been vivid color.
I think people tend to see the bigger point which is maybe not fitting in and feeling like you didn't have the childhood that you expected you would have or that you felt lonely or struggled with drugs and alcohol or just that you were able to achieve your dreams.
What differentiates us from animals is the fact that we can listen to other people's dreams fears joys sorrows desires and defeats - and they in turn can listen to ours.
I try to help people realize their dreams by using magic to tell stories that educate move and inspire.
