Hope is for suckers.

It’s asking to have your heart broken.

Optimists are only going to be disappointed.

A belief in a better future is naive and futile.

Nothing will change, the world is what it is, so we only need to look out for today and for ourselves.

Hope is for suckers.

I guess that makes me a sucker.

And I wouldn’t want it any other way.

If my heart gets broken, it means that I have loved.

If I am disappointed, I can pick myself up again.

I would rather be naive, than bitter and twisted.

Things can change, the world can be better and we can each make a positive, long-term contribution to the people around us.

Because I will always live with hope, even if others consider it foolish.
