Hoping For The Best Quotes - Page 6

• Pickett excused himself, watchful of Longstreet. Pickett was always saying something to irritate somebody, and he rarely knew why, so his method was simply to apologize in general from time to time and let people know he meant well and then to shove off and hope for the best. He apologized and departed, curls ajiggle.

• To that world assembly of sovereign states, the United Nations, our last best hope in an age where the instruments of war have far outpaced the instruments of peace, we renew our pledge of support - to prevent it from becoming merely a forum for invective - to strengthen its shield of the new and the weak - and to enlarge the area in which its writ may run.

• La última esperanza de la Tierra, con una deuda de dos billones de dólares, gira fuera de control, y todo lo que podemos hacer es mirar fijamente a un tubo catódico parpadeante mientras Ollie responde a preguntas en la televisión mientras la prensa, resueltamente irrelevante como siempre, pregunta a los políticos si han cometido adulterio. Desde el V-J Day de 1945 hasta hoy ha sido, compatriotas míos, una pesadilla perfecta.

• Each must act as he thinks best; and if he is wrong, so much the worse for him. We stand on a mountain pass in the midst of whirling snow and blinding mist through which we get glimpses now and then of paths which may be deceptive. If we stand still we shall be frozen to death. If we take the wrong road we shall be dashed to pieces. We do not certainly know whether there is any right one. What must we do? Be strong and of a good courage. Act for the best, hope for the best, and take what comes. . . . If death ends all, we cannot meet death better.

• Sé un optimista equilibrado. Nadie está sugiriendo que te conviertas en un Pollyanna inconsciente, fingiendo que nada malo puede suceder o sucederá jamás. Hacerlo puede llevarte a tomar malas decisiones e invitar a la gente a aprovecharse de ti. En lugar de eso, sé un optimista racional que acepte lo bueno y lo malo, con la esperanza de que lo bueno acabe pesando más que lo malo, y sabiendo que siendo pesimista sobre todo no se consigue nada. Prepárate para lo peor pero espera lo mejor: lo primero te hace sensato y lo segundo te convierte en optimista.

  Dale Carnegie

• All the "not readies," all the "I need time," are understandable, but only for a short while. The truth is that there is never a "completely ready," there is never a really "right time." As with any descent to the unconscious, there comes a time when one simply hopes for the best, pinches one's nose, and jumps into the abyss. If this were not so, we would not have needed to create the words heroine, hero, or courage.

  Clarissa Pinkola Estes
