quotes of hope - quotes and descriptions to inspire creative writing

"Hope is often spoken of as if it were a butterfly upon wing; when in truth, to survive this world, it is a charging rhino with head down. Hope is the most bad-ass thing around."

"Hope doesn't knock gently upon the door and wish softly for it to open, she takes her boot and kicks it in because those within need her to rescue them."

"It's not that things always go right, they don't, very clearly. One only has to delve into history, the near and far, to see that. Yet what we do see is that over time humans do learn how to make things better, to take onboard new ways to make amends and move on. In that perspective, there is a form of realistic hope, one rooted firmly in pragmatism and a will to work toward a better tomorrow before the sun sets on today."

"When you've been working hard and everything you wanted to go right didn't, it's okay to have a 'fuck-it' day to reset your resolve. Sometimes that's an important part of hope. Making a better world would never be a sprint and those striving for it need the 'I'm not caring today' cocoon once in a while. For while the conscious brain is in revolt, the subconscious has a chance to hatch new plans, hatch new schemes and come back craftier than ever with a new smirk in the angelic portion of our soul, ready to inspire us onward."
