Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night. Take this kiss upon the brow! And, in parting from you now, Thus much let me avow-- You are not who deem That my days have been a dream; Yet if hope has flown away In a night, or in a day, In a vision, or in none, Is it therefore the less gone? All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream.****************************************************** *****I have no faith in human perfectability.
