Once you lost all hope, time began to go faster and the senseless days deadened your soul.
Once you choose hope, anything’s possible.
Nothing is more painful to the human mind, than, after the feelings have been worked up by a quick succession of events, the dead calmness of inaction and certainty which follows, arid deprives the soul both of hope and fear.
Nothing is fair. The most one can hope is for things to be logical. Justice is a rare illness in a world that is otherwise a picture of health.
Not knowing when the Dawn will come, I open every Door
My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.
Love was a damaging mistake, and its accomplice, hope, a treacherous illusion.
LORD, WHAT CAN THE HARVEST HOPE FOR, IF NOT FOR THE CARE OF THE REAPER MAN?
Know your own happiness. You want nothing but patience – or give it a more fascinating name, call it hope.
It is only hope which is real, and reality is a bitterness and a deceit.
In such a porcelain life, one likes to be sure that all is well, lest one stumble upon one’s hopes in a pile of broken crockery.
If you can love someone with your whole heart, even one person, then there’s salvation in life. Even if you can’t get together with that person.
