“One morning when the air was misleading and mild with hope....”

“Hope is misleading, hope is cruel, but hope is all we have.”

“They accepted the pleasures of morning, the bright sun, the whelming sea and sweet air, as a time when play was good and life so full that hope was not necessary and therefore forgotten.”

“There was no despondency when she fell asleep that night; nor was there hope when she awoke in the morning.”

“Obama has said his opponents were trying to 'scare and mislead the American people,' when in fact his opponents are the American people whom he is trying to scare and mislead.”
