All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible. ↗

Words do not change their meanings so drastically in the course of centuries as, in our minds, names do in the course of a year or two. ↗
