If
you advance confidently in the
direction of your dreams, and endeavor to live the life which
you have imagined, you will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. You
will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary; new, universal and
more liberal laws will begin to establish themselves around and within you; or
the old laws be expanded, and interpreted in your favor in a more liberal sense,
and you will live with the license of a higher order of beings.
Henry David Thoreau
