"You will find me in a sea of dreams"

Little niece: “OH, you scared me! Why do you walk around like that?”

Me: *taken back by her sudden appearance* “oh, I don’t know.”😳

Niece: “It’s creepy.”

Me thinking to myself: “I speak with my imaginary friends and do things in my imaginary world.”

“Sometimes she thought if men no longer know what they are looking at, there may well be unicorns in the world yet, unknown and glad of it.”

“It’s a rare man who is taken for what he truly is,” he said. “There is much misjudgment in the world. Now, I knew you for a unicorn when I first saw you, and I know that I am your friend. Yet you take me for a clown, or a clod, or a betrayer, and so must I be if you see me so. The magic on you is only magic and will vanish as soon as you are free, but the enchantment of error that you put on me I must wear forever in your eyes. We are not always what we seem, and hardly ever what we dream.”

“Can you truly set me free?”

“I dreamed it differently, but I knew.”

“I will kill you if you set me free,” the eyes said. “Set me free.”

“You must never run from anything immortal. It attracts their attention.”

“But you could never have granted my true wish.”

“This is me, remember?”

“They see what you have forgotten how to see.”

“I wonder what I did. I did something.”

“There’s no such a person as you, or me, or any of us.

“Our story is never to be.”

How dare you, how dare you come to me now, when I am this?”

“There may be truth somewhere, but it never gets down to me.”

“She pretended, but I knew—”

“I had not taken you for any more than you are,but such as you are, you should do as well as any.”

“I would like to leave you with this last thought...”

“In such matters you may lie to me as much as you dare.”

“A dream that returns so often is like to be a messenger, come to warn you of the future or to remind you of things untimely forgotten.”

“Drown out my dreams, keep me from remembering whatever wants me to remember it.”

“I always knew that nothing was worth the investment of my heart, because nothing lasts.”

“One word might have been enough, You’ll never know now.”

“They love you more, I think, though I do the best I can.”

“No sorrow will live in me as long as that joy”

“He lies only out of greed, but you lie out of fear. Or could it be kindness?”

“For all my air of mystery, I have a feeling heart.”

“Do not boast, old woman. Your death sits in that cage and hears you.”
