REVERIE
[ Also see Association Attention Dreams Fancy Imagination Meditation Memory Retrospection Speculation Thought ]

      - Victor Hugo

Reverie is when ideas float in our mind without reflection or regard of the understanding.
      - John Locke (1)

Revery is when ideas float in our mind without reflection or regard of the understanding.
      - John Locke (1)

When ideas float in our mind without any reflection or regard of the understanding, it is that which the French call revery, our language has scarce a name for it.
      - John Locke (1)

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

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