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

I'm not pessimistic about anything.

People don't like to follow pessimists.

I'm not as pessimistic as what a number of people seem to believe.

Pessimists are not boring. Pessimists are right. Pessimists are superfluous.

When I look at the world I'm pessimistic, but when I look at people I am optimistic.

I am a profound pessimist both about life and about human relations and about politics and ecology. Humans are inadequate and stupid creatures who sooner or later make a mess, and those who are trying to do good do a lot more damage than those who are muddling along.

I'm a pessimist. But I'm a pessimist with a sense of responsibility.

I don't consider myself a pessimist. I think of a pessimist as someone who is waiting for it to rain. And I feel soaked to the skin.
