In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. And in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.

Hope is such a beautiful word, but it often seems very fragile. Life is still being needlessly hurt and destroyed.

If you are reading this, be sure to count this on your blessings list.

This is the real power of joy, to make us certain that, beneath all grief, the most fundamental of realities is joy itself.

Action is what makes hope a reality.

May you find comfort and peace in every situation.

Chapters – Life has many different chapters for us. One bad chapter doesn’t mean the end of the book.

Massoud is dead, but not the hope ! (Massoud est mort, – Mais pas l’espoir !)

Sometimes it’s our darkest moments that make us shine.

Teams that spend a lot of time learning the tricks of the trade will probably never really learn the trade.

Your special spiritual gifts and talents are your calling.

Is there a chance? A fragment of light at the end of the tunnel? A reason to fight? Is there a chance you may change your mind? Or are we ashes and wine?

Hitch your wagon to a star.

The process of living, for each of us, is pretty similar. For every gain there is a setback. For every success, a failure. For every moment of joy, a time of sadness. For every hope realized, one is dashed.

In strange and uncertain times such as those we are living in, sometimes a reasonable person might despair. But hope is unreasonable and love is greater even than this. May we trust the inexpressible benevolence of the creative impulse.

I feel great! I really mean it. I have to remember this for the next time I’m having a terrible week. Have you ever done that? You feel really bad, and then it goes away, and you don’t know why. I try to remind myself when I feel great like this that there will be...

If God meant for people to fly, He would have given them brains.

Most days I live awed by the world we have still, rather than mourning the worlds we have lost. The bandit mask of a cedar waxwing on a bare branch a few feet away; the clear bright sun of a frozen winter noon; the rise of Orion in the eastern evening sky-every day, every night,...

Hope Love Grace Luckthere is space between them because you can’t hanle them if all four comes at once…enjoy hope ,,,,definitely love will come to you with a small gap,and so grace and luck too.

Peonage, Anti-Lynch Bill, poll tax, these are our issues. They are the most controversial issues in American life, and some of us will have to die for them! Yes, we want to join with the CIO! We cannot stop for controversy!” And there in the faces of my people I saw strength. There with the...

why it won’t work for me” excuses.You’re willing to waste years of your life walking away from your dreams instead of running toward your destiny.

All love stories have much in common. I wen through the same thing at one point in my life. But that’s not what I remember. What I remember is that love returned in the form of another man, new hopes, and new dreams.

My hope for the future, not just in the music industry, but in every young girl I meet…is that they all realize their worth and ask for it.

Women think in [Douglas] Sirk’s films. Something which has never struck me with other directors. None of them. Usually women are always reacting, doing what women are supposed to do, but in Sirk they think. It’s something that has to be seen. It’s great to see women think. It gives one hope. Honestly.

I am planting a tree in this bomb crater to remind us that in the midst of death, there is life… and hope.

Hope is the Word which God has written on the brow of every man.

I’m not sure I ever met an American teacher in Korea that hadn’t volunteered at an orphanage at least once—even our resident idiot could be surprisingly decent on occasion—but I’ve also visited foreign countries where children are taught hatred. I’ve seen it up close and personal. It’s antithetical to everything I believe in as a...

…human beings have a distorted view of risk. They don’t see the whole picture. Our perceptions are twisted by stories in the media, by films, by our own personalities and experiences. So, despite the unlikely odds, we still worry about being raped or murdered. We hear a sound in the night and think of burglars,...

So don’t be frightened, dear friend, if a sadness confronts you larger than any you have ever known, casting its shadow over all you do. You must think that something is happening within you, and remember that life has not forgotten you; it holds you in its hand and will not let you fall. Why...

You’re not broken beyond repair there is hope. There is a God who knows all the pain you endure and will heal, protect and rejuvenate you.

When you live by God’s Word, your life works. When you live without God’s Word, life doesn’t work. God’s Word builds you up, feeds your soul, and gives you strength, direction, guidance, hope, encouragement, and faith. Remember that He gave you His Word so that you would know Him and the way He wants You...

~ Faith lightens the path your shadowed mind has to walk ~

The beauty of a fragment is that it still supports the hope of brilliant completeness.

Being stubborn won’t make you fluent. Practicing will! The more mistakes you make, the more you’ll learn not to.

If you die, I die with you.

I don’t care what it looks, I don’t care what it feels like, I believe God.

Live within and without your core of being.

I love you with an intensity that is beyond reasoning.

While friends are there to motivate us and keep us pleased. Our enemies are there to annoy us, which makes us work harder to beat them.

Stories of absurd events in life get my creative juices flowing and have so far given birth to some of my best ideas.

There really is power in numbers. In today’s society one has to understand the true power of word of mouth. It’s true that the new tastemakers are us.

What hope is there?” I asked. “If even angels fall, what hope is there for the rest of us?

And the best, most redeeming, exciting thing I can imagine, from the smashed-up, broken place I’ve been, is that something beautiful could blossom out of the wreckage… This is what I know: God can make something beautiful out of anything, out of darkness and trash and broken bones. He can shine light into even the...

Those whose eyes twenty-five and more years before had seen “the glory of the coming of the Lord,” saw in every present hindrance or help a dark fatalism bound to bring all things right in His own good time. The mass of those to whom slavery was a dim recollection of childhood found the world...

Whole worlds’ darkness is not enough to dark the blaze of a candle..

Hope was always creating pleasantly ideological, and therefore impossible things.

Doubt was a giant-sized beast with heavy boots that pounded through the cities of the mind, sparking an occasional life only so Hope could rise again for a splendid recrushing. Doubt reveled in nothing more than destroying Hope. And Hope, being immortal, lived out its days with blithe indifference to its regular obliteration. Neither cared...

Imagine a man who doesn’t believe in anything, hope for anything, doesn’t love anyone. This is a description of a dead or paralyzed soul. This happens from great grief, or from an unhappy upbringing when parents make from their children’s souls paralytics.
