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.

Hope is a state of mind, not of the world. Hope, in this deep and powerful sense, is not the same as joy that things are going well, or willingness to invest in enterprises that are obviously heading for success, but rather an ability to work for something because it is good.

I thought, if ever there were a time to write a book about hope, it's now.

Hope is a very unruly emotion.

Hope is not just... out in the sky, or accepting the facts or reality. Hope is having optimistic, positive expectations.

I think it's a mistake to ever look for hope outside of one's self.

It's necessary to give birth to hope again.

I don't know what can be so dangerous about giving people hope.

Hope is trust in God's promises, faith that if we act now, the desired blessings will be fulfilled in the future.
