Pessimistic Quotes

The Wikiquote page for pessimism is so lovely that I'm putting lots of them here!

"The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds; and the pessimist fears this is true." -James Branch Cabell

"If we see light at the end of the tunnel, it's the light of the oncoming train." -Robert Lowell

"There is no sadder sight than a young pessimist, except an old optimist." -Mark Twain

"Optimists are useless and merely find hope where pessimists will work." -Ben Dory

"The nice part about being a pessimist is that you are constantly being either proven right or pleasantly surprised." -George F. Will

Anyone who hates these should not be afraid to let me know. (Heh heh heh...)
