"You can't just hope for happy endings. You have to believe in them. Then do the work, take the risks." --Nora Roberts

"All other doubts, by time let them be clear'd,
Some boats come to harbor without being steer'd."

(Shakespeare, "Cymbeline")

When I do tell thee, there my hopes lie drown'd,
Reply not in how many fathoms deep
They lie indrench'd.

(Shakespeare, "Troilius and Cressida")
