Dreamer of dreams, born out of my due time, Why should I strive to set the crooked straight. (William Morris)
What do we want our children to get from Henson's work? The same thing we learned from it. The philosophy of a gentle dreamer. The message that was encapsulated in "The Rainbow Connection” – the one about the "The lovers, the dreamers, and me.” It's the idea that life is about making a difference, a positive change. And we've all heard it, even the Howard Roarks among us, calling our names. View quote
Jim Henson

Steeped in sentiment as she lies, spreading her gardens to the moonlight, and whispering from her towers the last enchantments of the Middle Age, who will deny that Oxford, by her ineffable charm, keeps ever calling us nearer to the true goal of all of us, to the ideal, to perfection, - to beauty, in a word, which is only truth seen from another side? - nearer, perhaps, than all the science of Tübingen. Adorable dreamer, whose heart has been so romantic who hast given thyself so prodigally, given thyself to sides and to heroes not mine, only never to the Philistines! home of lost causes, and forsaken beliefs, and unpopular names, and impossible loyalties! (Matthew Arnold)

Man is essentially a dreamer, wakened sometimes for a moment by some peculiarly obtrusive element in the outer world, but lapsing again quickly into the happy somnolence of imagination. Freud has shown how largely our dreams at night are the pictured fulfilment of our wishes; he has, with an equal measure of truth, said the same of day-dreams; and he might have included the day-dreams which we call beliefs.
