My parents were not very happy. They were very worried about me pursuing a career that even if I had talent might not give me the happiness and the success that they - any parent hopes for their child.

Lucky that man whose children make his happiness in life and not his grief the anguished disappointment of his hopes.

I have great hopes that we shall love each other all our lives as much as if we had never married at all.

Great hopes make great men.

I always entertain great hopes.

What were once only hopes for the future have now come to pass it is almost exactly 13 years since the overwhelming majority of people in Ireland and Northern Ireland voted in favour of the agreement signed on Good Friday 1998 paving the way for Northern Ireland to become the exciting and inspirational place that it is today.

Therefore I am sure that this my Coronation is not the symbol of a power and a splendor that are gone but a declaration of our hopes for the future and for the years I may by God's Grace and Mercy be given to reign and serve you as your Queen.

The purpose of thinking about the future is not to predict it but to raise people's hopes.

Let your hopes not your hurts shape your future.

As I've said there were patriots who supported this war and patriots who opposed it. And all of us are united in appreciation for our servicemen and women and our hopes for Iraqis' future.

We in the United States should be all the more thankful for the freedom and religious tolerance we enjoy. And we should always remember the lessons learned from the Holocaust in hopes we stay vigilant against such inhumanity now and in the future.

That man is prudent who neither hopes nor fears anything from the uncertain events of the future.

He that hopes no good fears no ill.

Prosperity is not without many fears and distastes adversity not without many comforts and hopes.

In times when religious or political faith or hope predominates the writer functions totally in unison with society and expresses society's feelings beliefs and hopes in perfect harmony.

The solid middle-class values of hard work responsibility family community and faith my father talked about tirelessly from Iowa to New York he lived at home. The hopes he had for his family and for me he had for all Americans. I think Americans understood this.

No failure in America whether of love or money is ever simple it is always a kind of betrayal of a mass of shadowy shared hopes.

An adolescent is somebody who is in between things. A teenager is somebody who's kind of permanently there. And so living with them through the various teenage hopes and sorrows and joys was curiously enough a maturing experience for me.

I confess that for fifteen years my efforts in education and my hopes of success in establishing a system of national education have always been associated with the idea of coupling the education of this country with the religious communities which exist.

I am sure my fellow-scientists will agree with me if I say that whatever we were able to achieve in our later years had its origin in the experiences of our youth and in the hopes and wishes which were formed before and during our time as students.

We are people with all the hopes dreams passions and faults of everyone else. Eighty percent of us are born into families with no history of dwarfism.

As I've grown - dare I say it - older I had hopes of indulging my dreams of being a sailor.

Art is for entertainment purposes but it's also to reflect our dreams our hopes the present the future the past - whether it's good or bad.

The Oval Office symbolizes... the Constitution the hopes and dreams and I'm going to say democracy. And when you have a dress code in the Supreme Court and a dress code on the floor of the Senate floor of the House I think it's appropriate to have an expectation that there will be a dress code that respects the office of the President.
