Ralph Waldo Emerson, a journal entry in February 1855:
Fortune & Hope! I've made my port, Farewell ye twin deceivers; Ah! many a time I've been your sport; Go, cozen new believers.
The question is not, "have you been deceived?" I have, you probably have. The answer is not to reject fortune and hope, but to pursue a fortune and a hope that will bear much fruit in your life and in the life of others.
