I find hope in the darkest of days
Hope, deceiving as it is, serves at least to lead us to the end of our lives by an agreeable route.

Compromise is but the sacrifice of one right or good in the hope of retaining another - too often ending in the loss of both.
Hope lies in dreams, in imagination, and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality.
What is true of the individual will be tomorrow true of the whole nation if individuals will but refuse to lose heart and hope.
