Hope is a moral choice.

Hope is a necessity for normal life and the major weapon against the suicide impulse.

Beware how you take away hope from another human being.

A lot of people have great hope, and a lot of people who have great hope live. And, some of them who have great hope die. So it's not that hope is going to save you.

Hope is definitely not the same thing as optimism. It is not the conviction that something will turn out well, but the certainty that something makes sense, regardless of how it turns out.

Hope is not a form of guarantee; it's a form of energy, and very frequently that energy is strongest in circumstances that are very dark.

Hope is not a matter of age.
