I believe that man will not merely endure; he will prevail.

If happy I can be I will, if suffer I must I can.

We have found a tremendous optimism among the small and medium-sized businesses that we surveyed. They are looking forward to a great year, planning to expand their work force and marketing, and building on a great online holiday season.

Real optimism is aware of problems but recognizes the solutions, knows about difficulties, but believes they can be overcome, sees the negatives but accentuates the positives, is exposed to the worst but exceeds the best, has reason to complain but chooses to smile.

The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.

By reflecting a little on this subject I am almost convinced that those numberless small Circuses we see on the moon are the works of the Lunarians and may be called their Towns.
