October 3, 1924 - Day of Hope

This morning I left Atlanta and drove back to Florida.  I heard that today in 1924, Franklin Delano Roosevelt made his first trip to Warm Springs, Georgia for treatment for his polo.  He would visit these springs 41 more times and it is there where he died.  It is here where he discovered and went on to inspire hope:

When the world says, "Give up,"
Hope whispers, "Try it one more time."
- Anonymous

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.
- Albert Einstein

To eat bread without hope is still slowly to starve to death.
- Pearl S. Buck

Hope is like peace. It is not a gift from God.
It is a gift only we can give one another.
- Elie Wiesel
