Wednesday's Words of Wisdom

Edward Steichen (1879-1973) was one of the 20th century giants in the field of photography, and evidently a pretty thoughtful guy. Here's some evidence of the latter fact:

"There is only one optimist. He has been here since
man has been on this earth, and that is man himself.
If we hadn't had such a magnificent optimism to
carry us through all these things, we wouldn't be
here. We have survived it on our optimism."
