“It is necessary to hope... for hope itself is happiness.”
“Hope is itself a species of happiness, and perhaps, the chief happiness which this world affords.”
“The power of hope! Even a lack of ambition can, for a time, pay off as a necessary facet, as long as hope outweighs it.”
“And I wonder if anyone is really happy. I hope they are. I really hope they are.”
“I was beloved. I had been hoped for. Somehow, I was necessary.”
“I was trying not to be happy, hopeful. I did not believe I deserved happiness or even hope, if you knew my soul.”
