Hope.

''Take from people their wealth, and you hinder them;
take from them their purpose, and you slow them down.
But take from them their hope, and you stop them.
They can go on without wealth, and even without purpose,
for awhile.  But they will not go on without hope. ''  C. Neil Strait
The well-known maxim, "While there is life there is hope," has a deeper meaning in reverse:  "While there is hope there is life."
   Hope comes first, life follows.  Hope gives power to life.  Hope rouses life to continue, to expand, to grow, to reach out, to go on.
   Hope sees a light where there isn't any.
   Hope lights candles in millions of despairing hearts.
   Hope is the miracle medicine of the mind.  It inspires the will to live.  Hope is the physician's strongest ally.
   Hope is our shield and buckler against defeat.
   "Hope," wrote Alexander Pope, "springs eternal in the human breast."  And as long as it does we will triumph and move forward.
   Hope never sounds retreat.  Hope keeps the banners flying.
   Hope revives ideals, renews dreams, revitalizes visions.
   Hope scales the peak, wrestles with the impossible, achieves the highest aim.
   "The word which God has written on the brow of every person," wrote Victor Hugo, "is Hope."  As long as we have hope no situation is hopeless.

Hope is wanting something so eagerly
that--in spite of all the evidence that
you're not going to get it--you
go right on wanting it.  Norman Vincent Peale.
