Used to be that the St. John the Evangelist Church on Elgin Street had these two signs out front. They'd regularly change up those signs, often lettered in a matter very familiar to customers of the now-lost Honest Ed's store in Mirvish Village in Toronto.

A couple of people recently faved this one, originally taken and uploaded back in February 2011. I still don't know what the French one said, but the English one seems pretty blessedly clear. More so nowadays, nine years later.

The French one, roughly translated:

“Dream alone, and it’s only a dream; dream with others, and it’s already the start of reality.”

I would use "When one dreams with others", the conditional seems important to the phrase.
