I am not a pessimist; to perceive evil where it exists is, in my opinion, a form of optimism.

I am sort of pessimistic in that way where I often think the worst of people.

My pessimism goes to the point of suspecting the sincerity of the pessimists.

People don't like to follow pessimists.

My pessimism extends to the point of even suspecting the sincerity of other pessimists.

Pessimism, when you get used to it, is just as agreeable as optimism.

I'm not a pessimist at all, but I'm not an optimist, either.

Pessimism only describes an attitude, and not facts, and hence is entirely subjective.
