Quote of the Day (David Burge, on Sustaining Hope)

“Sustaining hope benefits not only you but everyone around you—even those hopeless, eye-rolling cynics who remain immune to your good cheer.”—Satirist and blogger David Burge in The Seven Deadly Virtues: 18 Conservative Writers on Why the Virtuous Life is Funny as Hell, edited by Jonathan V. Last (2014)
