Don't go around saying the world owes you a living; the world owes you nothing; it was here first.

Live hope

Fear builds the unknown into a crippling enemy. Hope, on the other hand, inspires you to bend the unknown in your favor.

Seek hope, hold hope, live hope, give hope, be hope. There may be scant justification for hope, yet there is always great reason for hope.

Because hope does not merely describe what’s going on. Hope pushes you to change the situation for the better.

Hope adds confidence, energy, persistence to your actions. Hope connects those actions to meaningful purpose.

True hope is not an empty wish. True hope embodies a powerful strategy.

On its own, hope achieves nothing. Yet with hope in your heart, you can do whatever is necessary to get anything accomplished.

— Ralph Marston
