Quotes About Hope

I have never lost my faith in God.
~ Maureen O'Hara
His tenacity is unmatched in my opinion. Incredible how someone could have suffered that long and come back out of prison with such a good heart and positive things to say and do.

Whoever digs at verse must renounce all idols; he has to break with everything. He cannot have truth for his horizon, or the future as his element, for he has no right to hope. He has, on the contrary, to despair. Whoever delves into verse dies; he encounters his death as an abyss.
~ Maurice Blanchot
BekleyiÅŸ, art?k bekleyecek hiçbir ÅŸey olmad???nda, bekleyiÅŸin sonu bile beklenmediÄŸinde baÅŸlar. BekleyiÅŸ ne beklediÄŸini bilmez ve onu y?kar. BekleyiÅŸ hiçbir ÅŸey beklemez.
~ Maurice Blanchot
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth. Instead of its bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay, it would give us hopes of eternal youth in a better world.
~ Maurice Chevalier
The Creator was immensely wise and charitable when He forbade us knowledge of the future, while He has vouchsafed us the delights of memory and the enchantments of hope.
~ Maurice Druon
It is well to believe that there needs but a little more thought, a little more courage, more love, more devotion to life, a little more eagerness, one day to fling open wide the portals of joy and of truth.
~ Maurice Maeterlinck
If it be true, as I believe, that humanity is worth just as much as the sum total of latent heroism which it contains, then we may declare that humanity was never stronger nor more exemplary than now and that it is at this moment reaching one of its highest points and capable of braving everything and hoping everything. And it is for this reason that, despite our present sadness, we are entitled to congratulate ourselves and to rejoice.
~ Maurice Maeterlinck
Do we know what it is that dies in our dead, or even if anything dies? Whatever our religious faith may be, there is at any rate one place where they cannot die. That place is within ourselves; and, if this unhappy mother went beyond the truth, she was yet nearer to it than those despairing ones who nourish the mournful certainty that nothing survives of those whom they loved. She felt too keenly what we do not feel keenly enough.
~ Maurice Maeterlinck
No one is fully saved, and no one is fully lost.
~ Maurice Merleau-Ponty
History repeats itself because man remains at the same level of being—namely, he attracts again and again the same circumstances, feels the same things, says the same things, hopes the same things, believes the same things. And yet nothing actually changes. All the articles that were written in the last war are just the same as the articles written in this war, and will be for ever and ever. But what concerns us more is that the same idea applies to ourselves, to each individual person.
~ Maurice Nicoll

But you know, as I do, that the storm will pass And that the implacable sun doesn't simply stop When obscured by a dark, pernicious cloud, Which is why I know I'll return to your house- On a Sunday that's there on the calendar- And laugh with you over a glass of grappa.
~ Unknown
la fantasía, ¿sabes?, es la única cualidad humana que no está sujeta a las miserias de la realidad.
~ Unknown
Cuando uno cuenta los naufragios es porque no se ahogó.

Beware how you take hope from another human being. - Oliver Wendell Holms Jr.
~ Max Allan Collins
What a privilege and opportunity it is to utterly come to the end of one's hope-not only to run out of answers, but to run out of questions. To be beyond fighting, to come to that suspended animation where we are so confused and so weak that we can neither fight or run. When you come to the end of yourself, you find the beginning of God. And there and nowhere else, you find the answers you seek. You find fulfillment for the longings of your soul.
~ Max Anders
We must stop talking about the American dream and start listening to the dreams of Americans.
