James Lee Burke Quotes About Dreams

Quotes about: Dreams

• Then the sun broke above the crest of the hills and the entire countryside looked soaked in blood, the arroyos deep in shadow, the cones of dead volcanoes stark and biscuit-colored against the sky. I could smell pinion trees, wet sage, woodsmoke, cattle in the pastures, and creek water that had melted from snow. I could smell the way the country probably was when it was only a dream in the mind of God.

  Dream, Country, Volcanoes

  James Lee Burke (2007). “Jesus Out to Sea: Stories”, p.54, Simon and Schuster

• I sometimes subscribe to the belief that all historical events occur simultaneously, like a dream in the mind of God.

What if other people, both dead and unborn, are living out their lives in the same space we occupy, without our knowledge or consent?" The Glass Rainbow, p. 138

  Dream, Men, Space

  James Lee Burke (2011). “The Glass Rainbow: A Dave Robicheaux Novel”, p.172, Simon and Schuster

• In the alluvial sweep of the land, I thought I could see the past and the present and the future all at once, as though time were not sequential in nature but took place without a beginning or an end, like a flash of green light rippling outward from the center of creation, not unlike a dream inside the mind of God.

  Dream, Past, Light
