Reverie is not a mind vacuum. It is rather the gift of an hour which knows the plenitude of the soul. (Quote by - Gaston Bachelard)

It's important to be heroic, ambitious, productive, efficient, creative, and progressive, but these qualities don't necessarily nurture the soul. The soul has different concerns, of equal value: downtime for reflection, conversation, and reverie; beauty that is captivating and pleasuring; relatedness to the environs and to people; and any animal's rhythm of rest and activity. (Quote by - Thomas Moore)

One of the best things about paintings is their silence - which prompts reflection and random reverie. (Quote by - Mark Stevens)

There is no self-delusion more fatal than that which makes the conscience dreamy with the anodyne of lofty sentiments, while the life is groveling and sensual. (Quote by - James Russell Lowell)

It was still quiet in the house, and not a sound was heard from outside, either. Were it not for this silence, my reverie would probably have been disrupted by reminders of daily duties, of getting up and going to school. (Quote by - Herman Hesse)

Sit in reverie and watch the changing color of the waves that break upon the idle seashore of the mind. (Quote by - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow)

Reverie is when ideas float in our mind without reflection or regard of the understanding. (Quote by - John Locke)

Thought is the labor of the intellect, reverie is its pleasure. (Quote by - Victor Hugo)

Both mind and heart when given up to reveries and dreaminess, have a thousand avenues open for the entrance of evil. (Quote by - Charles Simmons)

Do anything rather than give yourself to reverie. (Quote by - William Ellery Channing)

To lose one's self in reverie, one must be either very happy, or very unhappy. Reverie is the child of extremes. (Quote by - Antoine Rivarol)

It is a good idea to be alone in a garden at dawn or dark so that all its shy presences may haunt you and possess you in a reverie of suspended thought. (Quote by - James Douglas)

In that sweet mood when pleasant thoughts bring sad thoughts to the mind. (Quote by - William Wordsworth)
