Some Dreams Will Never Come True Quotes & Sayings

The course of our lives follows ancient and immutable laws, with an ancient, changeless rhythm.

Friendship is not enjoyable unless we take up its expressive challenges. If a person surrounds himself with "friends" who simply reaffirm his public persona, who never question his dreams and desires, who never force him to try out new ways of being, he misses out on the opportunities friendship presents.

Lord, ain't it a shame
Grieving together
Sharing the blame.
But when she was dying
Lord, we let her down.

The party's all over
Drink up and go home.
It's too late to love her
And leave her alone.

Just say she was someone
Lord, so far from home
Whose life was so lonesome
She died all alone
Who dreamed pretty dreams
That never came true
Lord, why was she born
So black and blue?
Oh, why was she born
So black and blue?
