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

Hope is the only bee that makes honey without flowers.

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

Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.

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

Compromise is but the sacrifice of one right or good in the hope of retaining another - too often ending in the loss of both.

We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.

God grant me the courage not to give up what I think is right even though I think it is hopeless.

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

We have always held to the hope, the belief, the conviction that there is a better life, a better world, beyond the horizon.
