Hope

"“Blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.”"

"“If pain must come, may it come quickly. Because I have a life to live, and I need to live it in the best way possible. If he has to make a choice, may he make it now. Then I will either wait for him or forget him.”"

"“Life's under no obligation to give us what we expect.”"

"“But I know, somehow, that only when it is dark enough can you see the stars.”"

"“And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.”"

"“You cannot swim for new horizons until you have courage to lose sight of the shore.”"

"“They say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world: someone to love, something to do, and something to hope for.”"

"“There is neither happiness nor misery in the world; there is only the comparison of one state with another, nothing more. He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness. We must have felt what it is to die, Morrel, that we may appreciate the enjoyments of life. Live, then, and be happy, beloved children of my heart, and never forget, that until the day God will deign to reveal the future to man, all human wisdom is contained in these two words, 'Wait and Hope.”"

"“The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.”"

"“If you're reading this... Congratulations, you're alive. If that's not something to smile about,then I don't know what is.”"

"“Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul And sings the tune without the words And never stops at all.”"

"“I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.”"

"“It's really a wonder that I haven't dropped all my ideals, because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart.”"

"“I like the night. Without the dark, we'd never see the stars.”"

"“Hold fast to dreams,For if dreams die Life is a broken-winged bird,That cannot fly.”"

"“You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us. And the world will live as one.”"

"“Listen to the mustn'ts, child. Listen to the don'ts. Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me... Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.”"

"“Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift of God, which is why we call it the present.”"

"Love may start out as a good feeling, but to love someone long-term is an act of the will."

"God does not call us to something without equipping us to do it. He faithfully gives us everything we need to walk with Him into the abundant life."
