S. JaeJonesSo I tried my best to stifle hope. Because hope's twin was despair, and despair was infinitely worse. If hope hurt, then despair was the absence of hurt. It was the absence of feeling. It was the absence of caring. I wanted very much to care.
About This Quote
There are many people who are not willing to give up or even try with hope. They let themselves feel that they will never reach their goals and just move on with their lives. The problem with this approach is that it is very difficult to get back up after falling down.
