“A gentleman of ambition is aware of the people he wishes to be associated with both socially and commercially. He knows that moving through different levels of society is akin to stepping through different rooms in an enormous house, each door leading to a grander environment than the last.

You choose hope, not as a naive wish, but as a choice, with your eyes wide open to the reality of the world - just like the cynics who have not made the decision for hope.” WorldBelieveMadeFeelingsRealityEyeSpiritualChoicesWishReligiousDecisionLevelsMoralIssuesConvictionWideYou ChooseNaiveMoral IssuesEyes Wide Open Author:Jim Wallis
