[Dialogue] 1/29/23 PHOTOS—B½ OF ARCHIVE PROJECT

…Hope is an orientation of the spirit, an orientation of the heart; it transcends the world that is immediately experienced, and is anchored somewhere beyond its horizons. In this deep and powerful sense, is not the same as joy that things are going well, but...rather, an ability to work for something because it is good… Hope is not the same thing as optimism. It is not the conviction that something will turn out well, but the certainty that something makes sense, regardless of how it turns out. In short, I think that [this is] the deepest and most important form of hope, the only one that can keep us above water and urge us to good works, and the only true source of the breathtaking dimension of the human spirit…. ~Vaclav Havel
