To not have any hope is where things start to get really bleak. Things are possible. The impossible can be possible.
Sarah Paulson
Everyone has talent. What's rare is the courage to follow it to the dark places where it leads.
Erica Jong

However things may seem, no evil thing is success and no good thing is failure.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The future is not Big Government. Self-serving politicians. Powerful bureaucrats. This has been tried, tested throughout history. The result has always been disaster. President Obama, your agenda is not new. It's not change, and it's not hope.

J.D. Salinger
My parents have always had a great sense of humor. And I really appreciate good humor in songs, witty lyrics that sneak up on you and then you listen again, and say: 'That's so funny.' John Prine's songs have always had this really witty tone.
Kacey Musgraves
Confront the dark parts of yourself, and work to banish them with illumination and forgiveness. Your willingness to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing.
August Wilson
