Hope - Ian Reid

This quote was added by 5802thern
One likes to think there is always hope. It is a uniquely human fantasy that things will get better, born, perhaps, of the uniquely human understanding that things will not. There's no way to know for certain, but I suspect humans are the only animals that know the inevitability of their own death. Other animals live in the present. Humans cannot. So they invented hope.
