Act One: Daydreams

“Yes: I am a dreamer. For a dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.”

― Oscar Wilde, The Critic as Artist

Humans always want to follow their dreams. It's practically in our blood, it's instinct. Apart from survival, it's what we all strive for.

“Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.”

― Edgar Allan Poe, Eleonora

Sometimes, we spend our whole lives dreaming. Everything around us passes us by, so we don't realize that our dreams are ridiculous. And when it hits us that they are... It can hurt, sometimes.

“There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.”

― Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

Some people argue that no dream is ridiculous, but that in itself is ridiculous. I've spent most of my life in a dream, and only now have I woken up...

“I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?”

― John Lennon
