About This Quote
Hope is a great thing, we all use it to lead into the future. Hope can actually be very dangerous and you should know that hope will be the last thing that can stop your forward momentum. If you have hope, you can be crushed. There are two ways of being crushed.
Being crushed by something that is crushing you or being crushed by someone who is crushing you. The bad thing about hope is that just when you are getting back on your feet, you hit a wall and everything seems to be going in reverse. Hope will ruin your life in many ways, but it will also give it meaning, so avoid being crushed by hope at all costs.
