Hope Quotes
-
Not the violent conflict between parts of the truth, but the quiet suppression of half of it, is the formidable evil; there is always hope when people are forced to listen to both sides; it is when they attend to only one that errors harden into prejudices, and truth itself ceases to have the effect of truth, by being exaggerated into falsehood.
John Stuart Mill

And he must be ready to choose death before dishonor without making too much song and dance about it. That's all there is to it.

W. Somerset Maugham
