"Mieux vaut un espoir différé que pas d'espoir du tout."

Samuel Beckett

Simplified Meaning:

It is better to have hope for something in the future, even if you have to wait a long time, than to have no hope at all. Imagine you are waiting for a bus that is late. It's frustrating to wait, but you know the bus will come eventually. This hope keeps you patient and positive. If you had no hope the bus was coming, you might feel sad or give up and walk home instead. In life, hope keeps us going when things are tough. Even if our dreams take a long time to come true, the hope they will one day happen gives us strength and keeps us motivated.
