Optimism and Pessimism Quotes and Quotations
 In the midst of winter, I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer.  One cloud is enough to eclipse all the sun. The progress of rivers to the ocean is not so rapid as that of man to error. - Voltaire When I look in the glass I see that every line in my face means pessimism, but in spite of my face - that is my experience - I remain an optimist. An optimist is a guy that has never had much experience. An optimist is a fellow who believes what's going to be will be postponed. Pessimist - one who, when he has the choice of two evils, chooses both. My pessimism goes to the point of suspecting the sincerity of the pessimists. A pessimist is one who has been compelled to live with an optimist. Pessimism is only the name that men of weak nerves give to wisdom. When it is dark enough, you can see the stars. There is not enough darkness in all the world to put out the light of even one small candle. When things come to the worst, they generally mend. The optimist claims we live in the best of all possible worlds, and the pessimist fears this is true. Still round the corner there may wait, a new road, or a secret gate. When Fortune empties her chamberpot on your head, smile and say 'We are going to have a summer shower.' The world gets better every day - then worse again in the evening. A man he seems of cheerful yesterdays And confident tomorrows. There is a budding morrow in midnight.
