[Essay] I just don't know whether it's right

[verosmy]

there is a sentence which Dumbledore said to Harry in the film Harry Potter
【It does not do to well on dreams and forget to live】
Is it a printing mistake ? Or it's a kind of way to express……
sorry to bother you , but I will appreciate it if you could answer me .

thanks a lot ;-)

It should be "it does not do to dwell...".

'well' should be 'dwell'.
