Quotes about Fantasy


True, I talk of dreams,
Which are the children of an idle brain,
Begot of nothing but vain fantasy.

William Shakespeare

True love's the gift which God has given
To man alone beneath the heaven:
It is not fantasy's hot fire,
Whose wishes soon as granted fly;
It liveth not in fierce desire,
With dead desire it doth not die;
It is the secret sympathy,
The silver link, the silken tie,
Which heart to heart and mind to mind
In body and in soul can bind.

Sir Walter Scott
