        In the same way you teach any other moral disposition: example and
precept.  Be hopeful, let others see that you are hopeful, look for
opportunities to explain what the grounds for hope are, and demonstrate how
hope facilitates your achievements and promotes cooperation.

        As in other kinds of teaching, the struggle against prejudice,
ignorance, apathy, and superstition takes a long time and doesn't always
end in victory.  But I'll be damned if I give up.
