Restore Hope

Famous quotes containing the words restore and/or hope:

    The poorest children in a community now find the beneficent kindergarten open to them from the age of two-and-a-half to six years. Too young heretofore to be eligible to any public school, they have acquired in their babyhood the vicious tendencies of their own depraved neighborhoods; and to their environment at that tender age had been due the loss of decency and self-respect that no after example of education has been able to restore to them.
    Virginia Thrall Smith (1836–1903)

    The All-Day Bird, the artist,
    whitethroated sparrow
    striving
    in hope and
    good faith to make his notes
    ever more precise ...
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
