"To hope means to be ready at every moment for that which is not yet born, and yet not become desperate if there is no birth in our lifetime."	Emily Elizabeth Dickinson
"The question was put to him, what hope is; and his answer was, "The dream of a waking man."	Laertius Diogenes
"If you wish to glimpse inside a human soul and get to know a man, don't bother analyzing his ways of being silent, of talking, of weeping, of seeing how much he is moved by noble ideas; you will get better results if you just watch him laugh. If he laughs well, he's a good man."	Feodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky
"Unless commitment is made, there are only promises and hopes... but no plans."	Peter F(erdinand) Drucker
"The trouble with most people is that they think with their hopes or fears or wishes rather than with their minds."	William James "Will" Durant
"Resolve to live as with all your might while you do live, and as you shall wish you had done ten thousand years hence."	Johathan Edwards
"There is no leveler like Christianity, but it levels by lifting all who receive it to the lofty table-land of a true character and of undying hope both for this world and the next."	Johathan Edwards
"Compromise is but the sacrifice of one right or good in the hope of retaining another -- too often ending in the loss of both."	Tryon Edwards
"All our thoughts and concepts are called up by sense-experiences and have a meaning only in reference to these sense-experiences. On the other hand, however, they are products of the spontaneous activity of our minds; they are thus in no wise logical consequences of the contents of these sense-experiences. If, therefore, we wish to grasp the essence of a complex of abstract notions we must for the one part investigate the mutual relationships between the concepts and the assertions made about them; for the other, we must investigate how they are related to the experiences."	Albert Einstein
"...One of the strongest motives that lead men to art and science is escape from everyday life with its painful crudity and hopeless dreariness, from the fetters of one's own ever-shifting desires. A finely tempered nature longs to escape from the personal life into the world of objective perception and thought."	Albert Einstein
"Where the world ceases to be the scene of our personal hopes and wishes, where we face it as free beings admiring, asking and observing, there we enter the realm of Art and Science."	Albert Einstein
"A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death."	Albert Einstein
"How I wish that somewhere there existed an island for those who are wise and of goodwill! In such a place even I would be an ardent patriot."	Albert Einstein
"As long as Nazi violence was unleashed only, or mainly, against the Jews, the rest of the world looked on passively and even treaties and agreements were made with the patently criminal government of the Third Reich.... The doors of Palestine were closed to Jewish immigrants, and no country could be found that would admit those forsaken people. They were left to perish like their brothers and sisters in the occupied countries. We shall never forget the heroic efforts of the small countries, of the Scandinavian, the Dutch, the Swiss nations, and of individuals in the occupied part of Europe who did all in their power to protect Jewish lives."	Albert Einstein
"If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed."	Albert Einstein
"Whatever America hopes to bring to pass in the world must first come to pass in the heart of America."	Dwight David Eisenhower
"It seems to me we can never give up longing And wishing while we are thoroughly alive. There are certain things we feel to be beautiful and good, And we must hunger after them."	George Eliot
"Is not marriage an open question, when it is alleged, from the beginning of the world, that such who are in the institution wish to get out; and such as are out wish to get in."	Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Those who cannot tell what they desire or expect, still sigh and struggle with indefinite thoughts and vast wishes."	Ralph Waldo Emerson
"The truth, the hope of any time, must always be sought in minorities."	Ralph Waldo Emerson
