“The days passed in a dream. I pictured our reunion again and again, played it out in my mind over and over until I’d almost worn a groove in my thoughts, so deep that it seemed the only thing I could think of was our reunion. Anticipation is a gift. Perhaps there is none greater. Anticipation is born of hope. Indeed it is hope’s finest expression.”

― Steven L. Peck, A Short Stay in Hell

"I advise you to stop sharing your dreams with people who try to hold you back, even if they're your parents. Because if you're the kind of person who senses there's something out there for you beyond whatever it is you're expected to do-if you want to be EXTRA-ordinary, you will not get there by hanging around a bunch of people who tell you you're not extraordinary. Instead you will probably become as ordinary as they expect you to be."

"When you're the most happening person at the party, it's time to leave."

~Kelly Cutrone

If you knew that hope and despair were paths to the same destination, which would you choose? ~Robert Brault

Hope is the feeling we have that the feeling we have is not permanent. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960

Hope is necessary in every condition. The miseries of poverty, sickness, of captivity, would, without this comfort, be insupportable. ~Samuel Johnson

Hope is patience with the lamp lit. ~Tertullian
