Hopelessness : (4) " Well, I’ve been reading a lot about the fifty years since the Second World War, about Western foreign policy and all that. I try not to let it get to me, but sometimes I just think that there’s no hope. " - Thom Yorke " There’s so much of our behavior that kind of curdles and hardens as we get into adulthood, and it becomes so much more difficult to be hopeful and to dream extravagantly. " - Jenny Zhang " Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man. " - Friedrich Nietzsche " There is a dream on the street. I hear it constantly – finding a piece of land, raising food, building a house. I hear talk of hopelessness. The price of land, you know. Housing is impossible. They are trapped in a cycle. How can you ask for a job after you’ve been sleeping in the bushes all night? " - Tom Noddy
