When I see these young girls who are dreaming the dream that I'm living it's very very exciting and it puts a big smile on my face.

I was a daydreamer and there is a lot of history and geography and science I missed out on because I was in my head. And I regret that.

Some dreamers demand that scientists only discover things that can be used for good.

Sad old blokes I'm told now dream of me with a whip in hand.

Before I left for Germany I had gotten accepted to the performing arts high school in New York which was a big dream of mine. And having to leave that was very sad for me.

What I loved about the acting class was that you got to think all day long about a person that wasn't you and figure out why they were sad and what they wanted what they dreamed.

It is a historical error for those who were not there to just refer to August 28th as 'I Have a Dream' speech day. That is a real disservice to those who were there. It was a sad day. It was not a celebration environment.

Well my biggest dream is to be in a romantic comedy.

I've often dreamed about going back to Nigeria but that's a very romantic notion. It's a hideous country to go to in reality.

I don't think I'll ever escape the fact that I don't belong anywhere in particular. I've often dreamed about going back to Nigeria but that's a very romantic notion. It's a hideous country to go to in reality.

I've been married before but I've never had my dream wedding in Vegas. I wanted to do it there because it's casual quick not religious and most of all very romantic.

The state of New Jersey is really two places - terrible cities and wonderful suburbs. I live in the suburbs the final battleground of the American dream where people get married and have kids and try to scratch out a happy life for themselves. It's very romantic in that way but a bit naive. I like to play with that in my work.

A tramp a gentleman a poet a dreamer a lonely fellow always hopeful of romance and adventure.

I have two dream roles: One would be a biopic of someone I admire and respect and the other one would be some sort of action drama film similar to a 'Bourne Identity.' I just really want to do an intelligent action drama film.

Perhaps I seek certain utopian things space for human honour and respect landscapes not yet offended planets that do not exist yet dreamed landscapes.

Yes I have made a lot of money and I have a lot of respect my films have done well and I know there are loads of loads of people who look up to me and really love me. I really just thought this is like a strange dream. I have never thought this is a success - I don't have a standard.

This week the world gathers in Beijing for the 2008 Olympic games. This is the extraordinary moment China has been dreaming of for 100 years. People have been longing for this moment because it symbolises a turning point in China's relationship with the outside world.

As you enter positions of trust and power dream a little before you think.

A leader has the vision and conviction that a dream can be achieved. He inspires the power and energy to get it done.

We all have our own life to pursue our own kind of dream to be weaving and we all have the power to make wishes come true as long as we keep believing.

I did the whole rock and roll thing that's coming up. I think you're going to enjoy that! 'Burt Rocks' it's called. I like that he's a dreamer I like how positive he is. There's a lot of things I think I can learn from Burt.

If I can inspire someone to go in a positive way and pursue a dream it can only be good.

Women are called upon to defend every bit of progress we have made against particularly virulent attack. But we must also hold out a vision put forth a positive agenda of what women need and want and then move forward toward that dream.

Regardless of Bill Clinton's politics or personal life he grew up in obscurity and was elected to the presidency - twice. Don't take that away from him because then you take it away from every other kid in America sitting out there in a school bus with a big dream.
