Fear cannot be without hope nor hope without fear.
Hope and fear are inseparable. There is no hope without fear, nor any fear without hope.
There is no hope unmingled with fear, and no fear unmingled with hope.
Hope should no more be a virtue than fear; we fear and we hope, according to what is promised or threatened us.
We are governed by our hopes and our fears.
These are hard times. The world hurts. We live in fear and forget to walk with hope. But hope has not forgotten you. So ask it to dinner. It's probably hungry and would appreciate the invitation.
If hopes were dupes, fears may be liars.
Love why do we one passion call, When 'tis a compound of them all? Where hot and cold, where sharp and sweet, In all their equipages meet; Where pleasures mix'd with pains appear, Sorrow with joy, and hope with fear.
What unhappy beings men are! They constantly waver between false hopes and silly fears, and instead of relying on reason they create monsters to frighten themselves with, and phantoms which lead them astray.
