Dreamers don’t lie

Mercutio: Why, may one ask?
Romeo: I dreamt a dream to-night.
Mercutio: And so did I.
Romeo: Well, what was yours?
Mercutio: That dreamers often lie.
Romeo: In bed asleep, while they do dream things true.

— William Shakespeare: Romeo and Juliet

We liars dream of dreams.
And we dream of no dreams.
We dream of the dreamless state of mind.
We dream of pursuing our dreams.
We dream of dreams to come true.

We dreamers often lie.

    Dreamers do NOT lie! That’s why they can make dreams out of your lies… ;-)

    You better make dreams out of my lies than my dreams … though, I guess, since I am liar, this was a lie, too.
