A Quote by Mara Brock Akil

I have no wish to go back to being frustrated by a character. It's really just part of being on an ongoing series. You're constantly hoping the next episode you get, something will happen for you.

Then each drove home alone, staring straight ahead, with the very same twist to their faces.

One never knew, after all, now did one now did one now did one.

Sometimes I leave an encounter or a conversation hoping that I didn't come off as above my raisin' - hoping that I didn't make somebody feel bad for not having as much as we're fortunate to have.

Jason Isbell

I am sorry I didn’t tell you the truth before. I was hoping I wouldn’t have to. You kept asking about Romeo and what he was really like. I was hoping that”—he smiled wistfully—“you would recognize me.

Anne Fortier

William James was not a prophet. He was a philosopher whose philosophy reflected his profound humanity.

Stanley Hauerwas

Parenting is really just a matter of tracking, of hoping your kids do not get so far ahead you can no longer see their next moves.

We can no more enjoy life by hoping for a future result than we can enjoy music by waiting for the final note.

She doesn't know I cry for the changing times. That just as I reread favourite books, some small part of me hoping for a different ending, I find myself hoping against hope that the war will never come. That this time, somehow, it will leave us be.
