Erich Fromm
We all dream we do not understand our dreams, yet we act as if nothing strange goes on in our sleep minds, strange at least by comparison with the logical, purposeful doings of our minds when we are awake.
Calvin Coolidge

Saint Francis de Sales
Do not wish to be anything but what you are, And try to be that perfectly.
Anon.
