The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The
optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.
An optimist is a person who sees a green light everywhere, while the pessimist sees only the red
stoplight. The truly
wise person is
colorblind. [email protected]
A pessimist is one who
makes difficulties of
his opportunities
and an optimist is one who makes
opportunities of his
difficulties.
The optimist thinks this is the best of
all possible worlds. The pessimist
fears it is true.
However they appear to the pessimist of the present day, it is
not in specialization or complication that the chief
danger to progress seems to lie, it is in something much more deep-seated and much more
elusive.
I don't consider myself a pessimist. I think of a
pessimist as someone who is waiting for it to rain and I feel soaked to the skin..
No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars, or sailed to an uncharted land,
or opened a new doorway for the human
spirit.
An optimist may see a light
where there is none, but why
must the pessimist always
run to blow it out?
I am not a pessimist; to perceive evil
where it exists is, in my
opinion, a form of optimism.
My optimism is shockingly refreshing
How
about a
little

And you, are you
optimistic? [email protected]
