There is nothing so well known as that we should not expect something for nothing - but we all do and call it Hope.

Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man.

Hope, deceiving as it is, serves at least to lead us to the end of our lives by an agreeable route.

Hope is like peace. It is not a gift from God. It is a gift only we can give one another.

Hope lies in dreams, in imagination, and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality.

All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.

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

One must always hope when one is desperate, and doubt when one hopes.

There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something tomorrow.

Hope is the feeling we have that the feeling we have is not permanent.
