The greatest hazard in life is to risk NOTHING.

The pessimist borrows trouble; the optimists lend encouragement.

The adventure of life is to learn.

In the face of unjust criticism we can become bitter or better; upset or understanding; hostile or humble; furious or forgiving.

Real optimism is aware of problems but recognizes the solutions, knows about difficulties but believes they can be overcome, sees the negatives but accentuates the positives, is exposed to the worst but expects the best, has reason to complain but chooses to smile.

Opportunities are like sunrises. If you wait too long, you miss them.

Real optimism is aware of problems but recognizes the solutions.
