– Me? You want me to... stop them? You know how many they are?
– Yeah. A lot of them. So get going.
– There are hundreds of waiting rooms in this train station which apparently now also serves as a high school library. It's impossible.

Both optimists and pessimists contribute to society. The optimist invents the aeroplane, the pessimist the parachute.
Like I always say, can’t find a door? Make your own.
Between the optimist and the pessimist, the difference is droll. The optimist sees the doughnut; the pessimist the hole!
Open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good when it's all going bad
The optimist thinks this is the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears it is true.
It's always darkest before the dawn.

— Aha! You're glad because you don't need them.
