Benjamin Franklin on hope

A penny saved is a penny earned.

For the want of a nail, the shoe was lost; for the want of a shoe the horse was lost; and for the want of a horse the rider was lost, being overtaken and slain by the enemy, all for the want of care about a horseshoe nail.

They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

A leader is a dealer in hope.

Napoleon1769–1821In His Own Words (1916)

We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.

Martin Luther King Jr.1929–1968
