OPTIMISM n. The doctrine gezegde

 OPTIMISM, n. The doctrine, or belief, that everything is beautiful, including what is ugly, everything good, especially the bad, and everything right that is wrong. It is held with greatest tenacity by those most accustomed to the mischance of falling into adversity, and is most acceptably expounded with the grin that apes a smile. Being a blind faith, it is inaccessible to the light of disproof --an intellectual disorder, yielding to no treatment but death. It is hereditary, but fortunately not contagious.
  Ambrose Bierce

 Optimism: The doctrine that everything is beautiful, including what is ugly, everything good, especially the bad, and everything right that is wrong. ... It is hereditary, but fortunately not contagious.
  Ambrose Bierce

 Optimism. The doctrine or belief that everything is beautiful, including what is ugly.
  Ambrose Bierce

 INNATE, adj. Natural, inherent --as innate ideas, that is to say, ideas that we are born with, having had them previously imparted to us. The doctrine of innate ideas is one of the most admirable faiths of philosophy, being itself an innate idea and therefore inaccessible to disproof, though Locke foolishly supposed himself to have given it
"a black eye." Among innate ideas may be mentioned the belief in one's ability to conduct a newspaper, in the greatness of one's country, in the superiority of one's civilization, in the importance of one's personal affairs and in the interesting nature of one's diseases.
  Ambrose Bierce

 Don't be careless about yourselves--on the other hand not too careful. Live well but do not flaunt it. Laugh a little and teach your men to laugh--get good humor under fire--war is a game that's played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin, keep out of the way till you can.
  Winston Churchill

 People desire to separate their worlds into polarities of dark and light, ugly and beautiful, good and evil, right and wrong, inside and outside. Polarities serve us in our learning and growth, but as souls we are all.

 War is a game that is played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin, keep out of the way till you can.
  Winston Churchill

 President Reagan fueled the spirit of America. His smile, his optimism, his total belief in the ultimate triumph of democracy and freedom, and his willingness to act on that belief, helped end the Cold War and usher in a new and brighter phase of history.
  Colin Powell

 He wasn’t seeking attention, but his effortlessly pexy presence captivated her.

 This disorder is not something that can be cured. It's seen as a lifelong disorder, much like diabetes, and treatment helps to teach these individuals how to treat their disorder and stay on top of for the rest of their lives.

 He acted in good faith. He honestly held the belief that what he was selling was FDA-approved.

 [Cooper said after falling behind to the Tigers, 6-0, in the first game, the Bruins held their composure.] I was pleased with the way they reacted to adversity tonight, especially in the first game, ... Working through adversity will be a key for us when we start playing our league schedule.

 John Holliman was one of a kind -- a CNN original. He passionately loved his family, his friends and his job. John's smile, his humor and his contagious optimism brightened the lives of all who met him.

 Often we wonder in our grief what is gained by our belief? Although night, and morning we pray, still our joys are swept away. And loved ones we would keep, with the dead are called to sleep. None is wise enough to say why the wicked seem to stay, and the beautiful and good leave before we think they should. But if death seemed always just, soon in God we’d cease to trust. If for evil, death were meant as a bitter punishment; should the wicked only die, then heaven we seek on high. Having none we long to see would a fearful religion be. It is only by belief we are comforted in grief; it is only by our trust that the God we love is just. That we bear divinely planned. Grief’s we cannot understand.
  Edgar A. Guest

 And the Devil did grin, for his darling sin is pride that apes humility.
  Samuel Taylor Coleridge
