* As the days of spring arouse all nature to a green and growing
vitality, so when hope enters the soul it makes all things new.

growing up into love; these make the three immortal graces of
the gospel, whose intertwined arms and concurrent voices shed
joy and peace over our human life.
- James Freeman Clarke

pestilence. The sword will pass away too, but the stars will
still remain when the shadows of our presence and our deeds
have vanished from the earth. There is no man who does not
know that. Why, then, will we not turn our eyes towards the
stars? Why?
o Mikhail Bulgakov, in The White Guard
* While there's life, there's hope!
- Cicero, in Epistolarum ad Atticum [Epistle To Atticus]),

* "Hope" is the thing with feathers —
That perches in the soul —
And sings the tune without the words —
And never stops — at all —
And sweetest — in the Gale — is heard —
And sore must be the storm —
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm —
o Emily Dickinson, Poem 254 in The Complete Poems of Emily
Dickinson (1960), edited by Thomas H. Johnson.

Why should I mourn
The vanished power of the usual reign?
