Alfred, Lord Tennyson Quotes

You can't see Canada across lake Erie, but you know it's there. It's the same with spring. You have to have faith, especially in Cleveland.

No Winter lasts forever, no Spring skips its turn. April is a promise that May is bound to keep, and we know it.

Winter isn't forever. Winter is always followed by spring. And it's how to take advantage of whatever season you're in.

Cleave ever to the sunnier side of doubt, And cling to faith beyond the forms of faith; She reels not at the storm of warring words; She brightens at the clash of "Yes" and "No"; She sees the best that glimmers through the worst; She feels the sun is hid for the night; She spies the summer through the winter bud; She tastes the fruit before the blossom falls; She hears the lark within the songless egg; She finds the fountain where they wailed "Mirage!"

Autumn is a season followed immediately by looking forward to spring.

Certainty abolishes hope, and robs us of renewal.

There has to be a measure of faith. That's what this business is all about: trusting in something that may never show up, that you have no concrete proof of.

For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith, But the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting.

I don't know what can be so dangerous about giving people hope.

It's a good place when all you have is hope and not expectations.

Something will turn up.

Blessed are those that nought expect, for they shall not be disappointed.

Resuscitation will not be promoted by recrimination. The distrust of the present will not be relieved by a distrust of the future. A patriot makes a better citizen than a pessimist. And we have got to be patient.

We're always going to be trusting the process.

I don't know what tomorrow holds. None of us do. We got to wait and see what God has planned.

Hope, O my soul, hope. You know neither the day nor the hour.

I know there will be spring, as surely as the birds know it when they see above the snow two tiny, quivering green leaves. Spring cannot fail us.

Only with winter-patience can we bring the deep-desired, long-awaited Spring.

Trust in the process you are now experiencing. Life is on your side. It is showing that to you now, though you may not be able to see it clearly at this time.

And then, despite everything, I smiled and looked at the note and knew that spring would come —it always does. so I stared out that cold window, watching my breath collect on the glass, trying not to think about my life after the thaw.
