“Hope criticizes what is, hopelessness rationalizes it. Hope resists, hopelessness adapts.”
“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.”
“Hope without love is hopeless.”
“Hope is the most hopeless thing of all.”
“There is no hope for the hopeless but there is always some love for the loveless.”
