I still believe in a place called Hope.
Ireland was a place for the renewal of hope and I still see it like that.
My hope is that we continue to nurture the places that we love but that we also look outside our immediate worlds.
But then there are magical beautiful things in the world. There's incredible acts of kindness and bravery and in the most unlikely places and it gives you hope.
Hope founded upon a human being a man-made philosophy or any institution is always misplaced... because these things are unreliable and fleeting.
A good question is never answered. It is not a bolt to be tightened into place but a seed to be planted and to bear more seed toward the hope of greening the landscape of idea.
Today I can declare my hope and declare it from the bottom of my heart that we will eventually see the time when that number of nuclear weapons is down to zero and the world is a much better place.
Man is properly speaking based upon hope he has no other possession but hope this world of his is emphatically the place of hope.
I place no hope in my strength nor in my works: but all my confidence is in God my protector who never abandons those who have put all their hope and thought in him.
I support workplace clean air. But a federal ban on smoking would mean that you couldn't smoke in your own home. I don't care what people do in their home.
