Lots of people let it go by and never accomplish what they want. I just wanted to see what I could do.
I went from a naive, regular girl in high school to trying to realize my dream. When my family moved from the East Coast to California, I thought in my little brain, "Wow, I'm going to Hollywood. I could actually make this happen." It was easier for me to think it's possible living in a place like Los Angeles than trying to do it in suburban Maryland.
When I was 15, my mom and I packed everything up and moved to Nashville so I could pursue my dream in music.
The key to turning dreams into reality is action.
You can do anything you wish to do, have anything you wish to have, be anything you wish to be.
Dreams are vague and far away. Goals are tangible and achievable.
Our dreams are waiting for US... to come true!
Dreams are only dreams until you wake up and make them real.
When I started acting, I was asked said, 'What's your dream?' 'What would you like to achieve?' I would say, 'Oh, I'd like to sit opposite DeNiro and hold my own.' But, you never think it's gonna happen.
Focus your vision by giving it a goal.

Dreams that are realized become an inspiration for new endeavor. It is in the power to make the dream good that we find the hope of this world.
The dream has to be translated into reality.
Believe in yourself, go after your dreams, and don't let anyone put you in a box.
People don't run out of dreams - people just run out of time.
You can't run your career on the basis of what someone else does.
Dreams, though, are cheap, and the real task comes when you start putting in place the steps needed to make those dreams a reality.
Don't let anyone stop you from doing what you are doing, from your dreams and what you want to do.
I can't comprehend that I'm in the film of 'Les Miserables.' It's one of those dreams I thought would be unattainable for someone like me, who came from nowhere.
Every day is a new opportunity to reach that goal.
It's our own ability to have an idea and go after the idea and make it happen. That's what at the end of the day defines us.
You have a responsibility to move your dreams forward, no matter what.
I'm a very famous wife but I'm still plodding along in my career.
Dream as big as you want because they come true everyday
If you're alive, kick into drive. Chase whimsies. See if you can turn dreams into a way to make a living, if not an entire way of life.
I had hoped when my life was chronicled, it would be an inspirational story.
