There's an old line that goes like this: An optimist is usually happy. And a pessimist is usually right. Maybe so. But which would you rather be, anyway?
I'm an eternal optimist with a small degree of cynicism.
There's the silver lining I've been looking for.
Some people see the glass half full. Others see it half empty. I see a glass that's twice as big as it needs to be.
I believe that there is a silver lining in everything, and once you begin to see it, you'll need sunglasses to combat the glare.
There is a good and a bad light in which every thing that befalls us may be taken. If the human mind will busy itself to make theworst of every disagreeable occurrence, it will never want woe.
