"hope is a constant companion in life. it is the one thing that neither cruel nature, God nor other men can wrench from us. health, wealth, parents, beloved brothers and sisters, children, friends, the past, the future - all can be stolen from us as easily as an unguarded purse. but our greatest treasure, hope, remains. it is a sturdy little motor within, purring, ticking, driving us on when reason would suggest surrender. it is both the most pathetic and noblest thing about us, the most absurd and the most admirable quality we possess, for as long as we have hope, we also have the capacity for love, for caring, for decency."
