“Be militantly optimistic”
“Be fanatically positive and militantly optimistic. If something is not to your liking, change your liking.”
“I am an optimist, unrepentant and militant. After all, in order not to be a fool, an optimist must know what a sad place the world can be. It is only the pessimist who finds this out anew every day.”
“To the militant, identity is everything.”
“...the consequences of militancy do not disappear when the need for militancy is over. Freedom is fragile and must be protected. To sacrifice it, even as a temporary measure, is to betray it.”
“People can learn to be more optimistic by acting as if they were more optimistic.”
