All human wisdom is summed up in two words wait and hope.

Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul - and sings the tunes without the words - and never stops at all.

Nothing you write, if you hope to be good, will ever come out as you first hoped.

Change is not a destination, just as hope is not a strategy.

Faith is the very first thing you should pack in a hope chest.

A strong mind always hopes, and has always cause to hope.

None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.

A little more persistence, a little more effort, and what seemed hopeless failure may turn to glorious success.

The past is a source of knowledge, and the future is a source of hope. Love of the past implies faith in the future.

I am proud to have been capable of giving people hope again.
