Interesting Statements

Submitted by VernalFire on Wed, 05/28/2008 at 11:40pm.

Hope is the power of being cheerful in circumstances that we know to be desperate.

We should never let our fears hold us back from pursuing hopes.

There are no hopeless situations, there are only men who have grown hopeless about them.

Of all the forces that make for a better world, none is so indispensible, none so powerful as hope, without hope man is only half alive.

Great hopes make great men.

Action may not always bring happiness, but there is no happiness without action.

If you think you are a winner you will win, if you dare to step out you will succeed, believe in your heart, have a purpose, aim to help fellow man in his need, thoughts of faith must replace every doubt, words of courage and you cannot fail, if you stumble and fall, rise and stand ten feet tall, you determine the course you sail.

He who has courage and faith will never perish in misery.

Believe you can, and you can, belief is one of the most powerful of all problem dissolvers. When you believe that a difficulty can be overcome, you are more than halfway to victory over it already.

Low self-esteem is like driving through life with your handbrake on.

Start treating yourself as if you are the most important asset you will ever have. After all, aren't you.

You can do or be whatever you want in your own life, nothing can stop you, except for your own fears, don't blame anyone else, you have the power to make the decision, just do it.

Hey VF,

Good on ya for putting it out there..... so true!

'hope', 'belief' ... strong good positive words.

hope ya don't mind me saying ... but , ... hehe ... but, you are only referring to 'man' in your words. I know that's not the point, and what you are saying is for all humanity, but it makes half of the human race think you are not really talking to them. so, being the good public servant that i am, can i ask you to call people 'men and women', 'humans', 'people'.... too easy eh!

may you be filled with loving kindness

may you be well

may you be peaceful and at ease

may you be happy
