Michel de Montaigne Quotes

The very purpose of our life is happiness, which is sustained by hope. We have no guarantee about the future, but we exist in the hope of something better.

Hope is merely another face of desire.

Look up, now look down. Up is endless, down has an ending. Always look up.

Hope is wanting something so eagerly that-in spite of all the evidence that you're not going to get it-you go right on wanting it.
