Hope Quotes

He had never thought of himself as much of a praying man, but as he sat in the car in the growing darkness and the minutes passed, he knew what it was to pray. It was to will goodness out of evil, hope out of despair, life out of death. It was to will dreams into existence and spectres into reality. It was to will an end to anguish and a beginning to joy Picture Quote #1

There is no love, there is only the lie we tell ourselves that things are more important than they actually are, that our lives will have meaning beyond all the other lives that have come before us and been forgotten, that there is hope in any of this Picture Quote #1

The strain of constant adaptation to so many fearful events and discoveries is already too much to bear with sanity; one has to keep pretending to slip successfully into the new mould; a time will come when the tailored and camouflaged mind breaks beneath the burden; the stick insect in our brains no longer cares to resemble a twig on the same habitual human tree in the mere hope that it may survive extinction Picture Quote #1

There’s a mouse in here with me. He’s sitting there in the light of the lamp, looking up at me. He seems as surprised to see me as I am to see him. There he goes. I can hear him still, scurrying about somewhere under the hayrick. I think he’s gone now. I hope he comes back. I miss him already Picture Quote #1

The challenge for those of us who care about our faith and about a hurting world is to tell stories which will carry the words of grace and hope in their bones and sinews and not wear them like fancy dress Picture Quote #1

People say that time is a great healer. Which people? What are they talking about? I think some feelings you experience in your life are written in indelible ink and the best you can hope for is that they fade a little over the years Picture Quote #1

... hope resides in the future, while perspective and wisdom are almost always found by looking to the past Picture Quote #1

It is a huge danger to pretend that awful things do not happen. But you need enough hope to keep going. I am trying to make hope. Flowers grow out of darkness Picture Quote #1

She remembered was hope was, and this was it. That inner churning that moves you forward, plows you through life the way the boats plowed the shiny water, the way the plane was plowing forward to a place new, and where she was needed Picture Quote #1

Yes, we all know that there’s a good chance the missiles won’t work properly when the government people finally come to get them, but over the years we’ve stopped worrying about that. Deep down, most of us feel it’s probably better this way. After all, if there are families in faraway countries with their own backyard missiles, armed and pointed back at us, we would hope that they too have found a much better use for them Picture Quote #1

Here’s to another year and let’s hope it’s above ground Picture Quote #1

For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start all over again Picture Quote #1

I did point out that I have no prophetic gifts. I write books because I tried to do something more useful and failed. Since I’ve been trained to write, I do that as a defense against total despair. And seeing people like you, who are actively engaged in trying to salvage pieces of our wrecked lives, gives me hope that after all we are not alone Picture Quote #1

If you ever read one of my books I hope you’ll think it looks so easy. In fact, I wrote those chapters 20 times over, and over, and over, and that if you want to write at a good level, you’ll have to do that too Picture Quote #1

I am treating you as my friend, asking you to share my present minuses in the hope that I can ask you to share my future plusses Picture Quote #1

You won’t understand life and death until you’re ready to set aside any hope of understanding life and death and just live your life until you die Picture Quote #1

People are always trying to tell you how they feel. Some of them say it outright, and some of them, they tell you with their actions. And you have to listen. I don’t know what will happen with your lady friend. I think she’s a nice person, and I hope you get what you want. But do me a favor: Listen, and don’t ignore what you hear Picture Quote #1

I wore a groove in the kitchen floor with endless trips to the fridge, hoping against hope that I had somehow missed a plateful of cold sausages on the previous 4,000 excursions. Then, for no obvious reason, I decided to buy a footstool Picture Quote #1

It was an odd thing to do, to stand in a street in the hope of seeing someone who hardly knew him, but he did not want to move Picture Quote #1

I live for coincidences. They briefly give to me the illusion or the hope that there’s a pattern to my life, and if there’s a pattern, then maybe I’m moving toward some kind of destiny where it’s all explained Picture Quote #1

Sometimes when you least expect it, the tables turn and that scary feeling that has taken hold of you for so long somehow turns into hope Picture Quote #1

It is better to travel with hope in one’s heart than to arrive in safety... We should celebrate today’s failure because it is a clear sign that our voyage of discovery is not yet over. The day the experiment succeeds is the day the experiment ends. And I inevitably find that the sadness of ending outweighs the celebration of success Picture Quote #1

It’s different being afraid when there’s the hope it will amount to something Picture Quote #1

I need words and print... I need print like an addict. I could live without it, perhaps. But I hope I never have to try Picture Quote #1

Hope in the beginning feels like such a violation of the loss, and yet without it we couldn’t survive Picture Quote #1

Losing hope is not so bad. There’s something worse: losing hope and hiding it from yourself Picture Quote #1

I was carrying two cargoes. Yes, one of them was horror, but the other one was hope Picture Quote #1

I think that you’ve got to make something that pleases you and hope that other people feel the same way Picture Quote #1

You try as a parent. You love beyond reason. You fight beyond endurance. You hope beyond despair. You never think, until the very last moment, that it still might not be enough Picture Quote #1

Hope and curiosity about the future seemed better than guarantees. The unknown was always so attractive to me... and still is Picture Quote #1
