The most insignificant people are the most apt to sneer at others. They are safe from reprisals. And have no hope of rising in their own self esteem but by lowering their neighbors.

The less we deserve good fortune, the more we hope for it.

I hope for nothing. I fear nothing. I am free.

I'm a romantic a sentimental person thinks things will last, a romantic person hopes against hope that they won't.

Neither should a ship rely on one small anchor, nor should life rest on a single hope.
