I would like to tell the young men and women before me not to lose hope and courage. Success can only come to you by courageous devotion to the task lying in front of you.
It is only for the sake of those without hope that hope is given to us.
Hope is necessary in every condition. The miseries of poverty, sickness and captivity would, without this comfort, be insupportable.
All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
To confront criminals, we need to finish with corruption. If we don’t do this, there is no hope.
The hope of eternal life is not to be taken up upon slight grounds. It is a subject to be settled between God and your own soul; settled for eternity. A supposed hope, and nothing more, will prove your ruin.
It has never been, and never will be easy work! But the road that is built in hope is more pleasant to the traveler than the road built in despair, even though they both lead to the same destination.
In motivating people, you’ve got to engage their minds and their hearts. I motivate people, I hope, by example – and perhaps by excitement, by having productive ideas to make others feel involved.
He who has faith has… an inward reservoir of courage, hope, confidence, calmness, and assuring trust that all will come out well – even though to the world it may appear to come out most badly.
To not have any hope is where things start to get really bleak. Things are possible. The impossible can be possible.
Oh man. If I had magic powers… I would hope that I would use them for good. I think I would. But I would do something pretty trivial like making traffic disappear.
The United States is the world’s best hope, but if you fetter her in the interests and quarrels of other nations, if you tangle her in the intrigues of Europe, you will destroy her power for good and endanger her very existence.
The United Nations is our one great hope for a peaceful and free world.
Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present generation to preserve your freedom! I hope you will make a good use of it.
I think that everybody needs four things in life. Everybody needs something to do regardless of age. Everybody needs someone to love. Everybody needs something to hope for, and, of course, everybody needs someone to believe in.
Hope will be found by understanding that diversity is the essence of the American Dream and why we need each other to fulfill it.
Change is definitely every day. It’s an ever-changing world. Everything changes, so I really don’t know. I just hope I become a better person, a better man.
Art is longing. You never arrive, but you keep going in the hope that you will.
There is no despair so absolute as that which comes with the first moments of our first great sorrow, when we have not yet known what it is to have suffered and be healed, to have despaired and have recovered hope.
If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed.
Imagine all the people living life in peace. You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one. I hope someday you’ll join us, and the world will be as one.
Everybody has a different journey. Everybody has a different path, and you don’t really know what to expect. All you know is to just keep plugging away, and you hope something will come through and something will happen.
Your ordinary acts of love and hope point to the extraordinary promise that every human life is of inestimable value.
We leave as we came and, god willing, as we shall return, with peace, and hope for all mankind.
I hope to make a positive, productive contribution, as cheesy as that may sound.
