It's better to be an optimist who is sometimes wrong than a pessimist who is always right.

I still believe that one day mankind will bow before the altars of God and be crowned triumphant over war and bloodshed, and nonviolent redemptive good will proclaim the rule of the land.

Do not let the past disturb you, just leave everything in the Sacred Heart and begin again with joy.

If calamities had the weight of physical objects we should long have been crushed down, or else, we should by now have been hunchbacked, unsteady on our feet, and with faces full of gloom and utter despair. Yet my entire body throbs with life and is full of expectations. Each day brings a fresh stock of experiences and new dreams.

I approach every problem with optimism.

A pessimist is a well-informed optimist.
