Hope

"The spirit of hope will sustain you in every situation."

"It is beyond my human strength. So, I depend on divine power."

"With strong heart, you will survive any hardships."

"The survived souls give strength to the suffering souls."

"A great battle is a terrible thing," the old knight said, "but in the midst of blood and carnage, there is sometimes also beauty, beauty that could break your heart."

"Spirituality is the strength of being."

"I lost all I had known and gained a life I was yet to know."

"I'm not fighting for myself anymore... It makes a difference."

"Some folks got a light around them that shine for other peoples. I think that maybe some of them was in tunnels, and in that tunnel, maybe the only light they had was inside of them. And then, even long after they escaped that tunnel... They still be shining for everybody else."

"Sometimes the world is so much sicker than the inmates of its institutions."

"If there's more that you can do, then do it. If there's not more that you can do, then be content with what you're doing. But if there is despair, the despair can only be that you can do more. Because when you're doing as much as you can do, you will not feel despair. Because despair is the gap between what you could be doing and what you are doing."

"The self-centered man will always expect nothing but praise. He will hope and expect all incoming criticism to be mere self-projection from the critic because when you're self-centered, self-projection is all you can imagine one can do."

"Some wounds; never reflects on the skin, but kills us slowly from inside."

"One can learn from what is not said."

"It is strange... the reasons one feels he doesn't deserve things."

"I am small. So are stars from a distance. It's all a matter of perspective."

"May you find grace to endure every circumstance."

"All the whackjob psychologists out there will tell you that grief is a process. Some say it has five stages. Others say that grief should only last two years at the lost, otherwise it's "abnormal". Putting an expiration date of grief though is like putting out the flame on a burning candle. It might stop the candle from melting down and falling apart, but in the long run the candle goes solid, freezes in a catatonic state. Take away a person's grief and guaranteed they'll only be a frozen shell of a human being afterwards. Grief is only love, it's nothing to hide or send away with happy pills and mother's little helpers. Grief is a lifeline connecting two people who are in different realms together, and it's a sign of loyalty and hope."

"She spoke to him of her problems, and that made him forget his own. She told him that he was intelligent, thoughtful, becoming, and deeply magnetic - everything he wanted so badly for her to see in him. Attention is the greatest gift when you're too afraid to pay it to yourself, the wind ruminates."

"Love is the light by which all are brought forward out of darkness."
