“Optimism is the foundation of courage” – Nicholas Murray Butler (1862-1947) an American philosopher, diplomat, and educator. Butler was president of Columbia University during its period of greatest expansion, in which it acquired an international reputation as a center of research and scholarship, president of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, and adviser to 7 presidents.

Limomangary’s thought on this quote of optimism:

If you are optimistic about whatever you endeavor to be, do or become you are already well founded in what you will need to complete the journey. If you haven’t yet found the reason to be optimistic I would suggest waiting to start on your path because without the Optimism to be Courageous, along a sometimes long and bumpy road to success, you will lack the tools necessary to continue on and not turn back!
