Excerpts from A Book About Hope [01]

Everything is F*cked by Mark Manson

"All meaning, everything we understand about ourselves and the world, is constructed for the purpose of maintaining hope. Therefore, hope is the only thing any of us willingly dies for. Hope is what we believe to be greater than ourselves."

"The opposite of happiness is hopelessness, an endless gray horizon of resignation and indifference."

"Our psyche needs hope to survive the way a fish needs water. Hope is the fuel for our mental engine. It’s the butter on our biscuit."
