Some quotes from several different poets.

We’ve all been through trying times, where life gets you down, where the future seems bleak, and where everything feels like it’s falling apart. But it’s in these difficult times that we must remember to never lose hope.

Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul and sings the tune without the words and never stops at all.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift from God, which is why we call it the present.

Hope is a waking dream.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.

Don’t spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door.

All human wisdom is contained in these two words:

Wait and Hope.

When you have lost hope, you have lost everything.
And when you think all is lost, when all is dire and bleak, there is always hope.

Where there is ruin, there is hope for treasure.

If you’re reading this, congratulations, you’re alive!
And if that’s not something to smile about, then I don’t know what is.

When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.

Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly.

Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering it will be happier.

We dream to give ourselves hope. To stop dreaming, well, that’s like saying you can never change your fate.

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is to not stop questioning.

Only a fool would shun HOPE. This is what your trying to say?

Yes only a fool would shun hope. The irony of your post is that Hope was, along with Change the core message of Barack Obama's 2008 campaign.

like the old song
"You gotta have hope"

Weaver

Obama's hope was the hope that he would succeed in destroying our constitution and be able to enslave us in a communist type country. Of course he would be the leader for life.
Anyway thanks for the quotes. My hope is in my Lord Jesus Christ, the only hope.

Perhaps if you separate out the politics of the moment, you might have a better feel of what I was posting.

Oh, and just so you know. If it was up to me, I would have hanged that SOB 8 years ago.
