“Hope is the most hopeless thing of all.”
“Hope means hoping when things are hopeless, or it is no virtue at all... As long as matters are really hopeful, hope is mere flattery or platitude; it is only when everything is hopeless that hope begins to be a strength.”
“Things are only hopeless when you lose all hope.”
“There is no such thing as a "hopeless romantic". As long as you are a romantic, there is hope.”
“All this hoping for nothing-or someone-that's maybe hopeless”
“Hope criticizes what is, hopelessness rationalizes it. Hope resists, hopelessness adapts.”
