Even if the hopes you started out with are dashed, hope has to be maintained.

Hope is the only bee that makes honey without flowers.

We must free ourselves of the hope that the sea will ever rest. We must learn to sail in high winds.

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

This suspense is terrible. I hope it will last.

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

I am prepared for the worst, but hope for the best.

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

I do hope that our spring will be starting shortly and we will all be able to enjoy some sunshine again.

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