Hope - Quotes

 TimeFavorites

Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.

Dale Carnegie

It`s too late... With all hope extinguished
in Death`s ice-hut shall we two be brought
to hug in final sum.

Vitéz Mihály Csokonai

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all.

Emily Dickinson

There was never a night or a problem that could defeat sunrise or hope.

Bern Williams

One of the big reliefs for the atheist is not having to worry about what to hope, wish, and pray for. Did I want to pray for my mother`s suffering to end? Did I want to hope for her death? I didn`t have to worry about that. I could hope one day that she`d live longer so I could talk to her, and wish the next day that she would die and not have to suffer her paralysis and physical loss any longer. My wishing and hoping were inert; I could let them run wild. I could use them as pure solace.

Penn Jillette

No field of victory, nor servile rope,
but a soft bed will be my end, I hope.
When, come what may, the inventory's done,
I died of life - I'm not the only one.

Attila József

I hope no one reading this book thinks that "The exception proves the rule" means that if you have an exception, it means the rule is true. That`s just bugnutty. I had it explained to me as "The exception tests the rule." Also not true. The exception does not test the rule - it disproves the rule.

Penn Jillette

- A question, before you go. What is the truth?
- We place faith in ourselves. We see the world the way it really is and hope that one day all mankind might see the same.
- What is the world, then?
- An illusion. One of which can either submit to - like most do - or transcend.
- What is it to transcend?
- To recognize nothing is true and everything is permitted. That laws arise not from divinity, but reason. I understand now that our creed does not commend us to be free - it commends us to be wise.

Assassin`s Creed

There can be hope only for a society which acts as one big family, not as many separate ones.

Anwar Sadat

For all that is worth remembering in life is the poetry of it. Fear is poetry, hope is poetry, love is poetry, hatred is poetry; contempt, jealousy, remorse, admiration, wonder, pity, despair, or madness are all poetry.

William Hazlitt

Hope
Smiles from the threshold of the year to come
Whispering `It will be happier`.

Alfred Tennyson

You couldn`t hope to try for the big stuff, like world peace and happiness, but you might just about be able to achieve some tiny deed that`d make the world, in a small way, a better place.

Terry Pratchett

How wonderful that we have met with a paradox. Now we have some hope of making progress.

Niels Bohr
