Hoping Quotes (page 130)

One cannot be pessimistic about the West. This is the native home of hope. When it fully learns that cooperation, not rugged individualism, is the quality that most characterizes and preserves it, then it will have achieved itself and outlived its origins. Then it has a chance to create a society to match its scenery. Wallace Stegner
Christianity is realistic because it says that if there is no truth, there is also no hope; and there can be no truth if there is no adequate base. It is prepared to face the consequences of being proved false and say with Paul: If you find the body of Christ, the discussion is finished, let us eat and drink for tomorrow we die. It leaves absolutely no room for a romantic answer. Francis Schaeffer
To the Dark Lord, I know I will be dead long before you read this but I want you to know that it was I who discovered your secret.

Nathaniel Hawthorne

To ask an author who hopes to be a serious writer if his work is autobiographical is like asking a spider where he buys his thread. The spider gets his thread right out of his own guts, and that is where the author gets his writing. Robertson Davies
Albert Camus quote: "And indeed it could be said that once the faintest stirring of..."
And indeed it could be said that once the faintest stirring of hope became possible, the dominion of plague was ended. Albert Camus
Let my body dwell in poverty, and my hands be as the hands of the toiler; but let my soul be as a temple of remembrance where the treasures of knowledge enter and the inner sanctuary is hope. George Eliot
Andy Dufresne: 'That's the beauty of music. They can't get that from you...haven't you ever felt that way about music?' Red: 'I played a mean harmonica as a younger man. Lost interest in it though. Didn't make much sense in here.' Andy: 'Here's where it makes the most sense. You need it so you don't forget.' Red: 'Forget?' Andy: 'Forget that...there are places in this world that aren't made out of stone. That there's something inside...that they can't get to, that they can't touch. That's... Stephen King
You do not want a war. You have known violence. You have suffered loss. But you have seen nothing of war. War is not just the business of death. It is the anti-thesis of life. Hope, tortured and flayed. Reason, dismembered, grinning at it's limbs in it's lap. Decency raped to death. You will be a murderer. And more. Joss Whedon
Art forms that appeal to [leftists] tend to focus on ... defeat and despair ... as if there were no hope of accomplishing anything through rational calculation. Theodore Kaczynski

If you're still, and if you don't hope too much, peace will come to you. It's a grace. But you have to choose happiness. Dean Koontz
Gilbert K. Chesterton quote: "Happiness is not only a hope, but also in some strange manner..."
Happiness is not only a hope, but also in some strange manner a memory ... we are all kings in exile. Gilbert K. Chesterton
