Dreamers and Dreamwalking
For more details on Dreamwalking, see Tel'aran'rhiod.Separate from the ability to channel the One Power, the ability to visit Tel'aran'rhiod is known as Dreamwalking. This can be accomplished naturally, as Egwene al'Vere or the Wise Ones in the Aiel Waste do, or through the use of ter'angreal. On the other hand, Dreamers are people who have visions of events in their dreams that have yet to happen (or are happening currently). Usually, these are difficult to interpret correctly before they take place.
It is unclear whether or not all Dreamers can Dreamwalk, or vice versa, though the two do seem to be closely linked.

Famous quotes containing the words dreamers and and/or dreamers:
“These marbles, the works of the dreamers and idealists of old, live on, leading and pointing to good. They are the works of visionaries and dreamers, but they are realizations of soul, the representations of the ideal. They are grand, beautiful, and true, and they speak with a voice that echoes through the ages. Governments have changed; empires have fallen; nations have passed away; but these mute marbles remain—the oracles of time, the perfection of art.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“All you violated ones with gentle hearts;
You violent dreamers whose cries shout heartbreak;”
—Margaret Abigail Walker (b. 1915)
