Success Quote by Tim Rice

Rice writes like someone who has spent a career turning wishful thinking into something you can sing on the way to work. The opening shrug - "We all dream a lot" - levels the room: nobody gets to claim a monopoly on imagination. Then he cuts in with the quiet sting of fairness denied: "some are lucky, some are not". It reads less like self-help than like backstage truth from the entertainment world, where talent is common, desire is cheap, and the gatekeepers are real.

The quote’s pivot is the most theatrical move: "But if you think it, want it, dream it, then it's real". Rice isn’t arguing that fantasies materialize on command; he’s arguing that interior life counts as a form of reality, because it dictates behavior. In songwriting terms, belief is the engine that turns a private ache into an external action, a chorus, a leap. The subtext is pragmatic: you can’t control luck, but you can control commitment. Dreaming becomes a rehearsal for becoming.

"You are what you feel" is the closer, and it lands because it refuses the tidy comfort of "you are what you do". Feelings here aren’t indulgent; they’re identity-forming. For an artist, emotion is labor. For everyone else, it’s a reminder that the most consequential thing in the room is often the story in your head - the one that decides what risks you take, what you tolerate, and what you dare to call possible.
