Keep running; keep dreaming, keep alive the flame of hope; defeat and despair will not catch up with you

Bangambiki Habyarimana
About This Quote

One of the most famous quotes by Nelson Mandela. This is a very inspiring quote. Hope is important because it gives strength to keep living and keep building up the flame of hope in your life. Hope gives an opportunity to defeat despair and defeat hopelessness, all of which are nothing but despair that will not catch up with you.

Hope will never let you down no matter what happens to you. If you are down, hope will give you the strength to pick yourself up. If you are sad, hope will give you the strength to be happy again and fight until all your negative emotions are gone.
