Karl Lagerfeld Quotes

But I was still alive, and in my book, where there's life, there's hope.

I didn't get in to 'Strictly' the first time, but my determination and enthusiasm shone through and got me a job on the show the following year. Don't give up and turn the no's and setbacks into a positive!

Have Hope. Though clouds environs now, And gladness hides her face in scorn, Put thou the shadow from thy brow, - No night but hath its morn.

If life is to be sustained, hope must remain.

We are very near the end, but have not and will not lose our good cheer.

Patience is the art of hoping.

A great secret of success is to go through life as a man who never gets used up.

When I didn't get a job, I thought, 'Don't worry, there'll be another one.' I still live by that now. Nothing really fazes me any more.

As long as I'm healthy and can keep going that's what I'll do.

I live by two words: tenacity and gratitude.

I bump into a lot of people that have similar problems that I have but less titles or magazines than I have, and they just challenge their adversity with the same tenacity, with the same enthusiasm, with the same will to succeed because life is one and you've got to take advantage.

I'm not a glass-half-full optimist. I'm a glass-overflowing optimist.

Mental discipline and tenacity in the face of obstacles are traits that have greatly helped me in both my personal and professional journey thus far. I am also very optimistic by nature and tend to focus on the positive and remain hopeful when faced with adversity.

No matter how bad things get, eventually the sun is going to shine. If you just keep at it, pursuing your goals, eventually good things happen to decent people. For a person who is set on his goals, good things will happen. Everyone deals with adversity, it's how you bounce back from it.

Patience is not just about waiting for something... it's about how you wait, or your attitude while waiting.

Hold your head high, stick your chest out. You can make it. It gets dark sometimes, but morning comes. Keep hope alive.

Hope is both the earliest and the most indispensable virtue inherent in the state of being alive. Others have called this deepest quality confidence, and I have referred to trust as the earliest positive psychosocial attitude, but if life is to be sustained hope must remain, even where confidence is wounded, trust impaired.

You develop patience that enables you to wait gracefully and gratefully until the best arrives because you know it will.

Hope in gates, hope in spoons, hope in doors, hope in tables, no hope in daintiness and determination. Hope in dates.

Hope has as many lives as a cat or a king.

In bad times and in good I've never lost my sense of zest for life.

That's all I can do. I'll keep at it and hope it gets better.

Life's blows cannot break a person whose spirit is warmed at the fire of enthusiasm.

I get very excited when I wake up in the morning and I am just full of oxygen. I say that purposefully. I try not to take for granted how lucky we are to have life and breath and opportunity. Once we've got that, we can conquer anything. Truly, I get high on oxygen, and once I graduate from that, what really fulfills me is doing what I love. That, to me, is absolutely priceless.

Hope . . . never stops at all.
