— Magdi Yacoub

— Madison Beer

— Madeleine Albright

— Maajid Nawaz
I hope they can see that as a consumer, if they express themselves, they may make an impact and leverage their impact on the brands, and the brands can leverage their buying power on tens of thousands of polluters - suppliers - in China.
— Ma Jun
The more kids that we can meet or kids that are terminally ill, we try to do it because it's really important, and you can see the hope in their eyes and in their families and their parents.
— M. Shadows
You have two options when you approach a hostile checkpoint in a war zone, and each is a gamble. The first is to stop and identify yourself as a journalist and hope that you are respected as a neutral observer. The second is to blow past the checkpoint and hope the soldiers guarding it don't open fire on you.
— Lynsey Addario
I think the key is to give the reader characters they not only care about, but identify with, and to never take away all hope.
— Lynn Flewelling

— Luol Deng
I hope someone thinks I sing good. I'm always working hard to sing better. I sound the way I sound, but I can always be better. I work hard at singing and being a better recording artist.
— Luke Bryan
My greatest desire is that the hope that has overcome fear in my country will help vanquish it around the world.
— Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva
There is beauty in our roots. Sometimes we think our roots are shameful, and people tell you that you're no good or your ancestors are no good or that you come from a neighborhood of no hope and terrible crime. But it's about the beauty of those places, and I carry that with me.
— Luis Alberto Urrea
I love making fiction films as well as nonfiction ones, and hope to keep challenging myself to make better and better work.
— Lucy Walker
As a relatively young woman - I'm 33 - I hope to one day have a family and already have commitments. If and when I'm elected as an MP, I would face a choice: take my family with me to London each week or be apart for four, maybe five, nights a week.
— Lucy Powell
I was sort of in denial about doing country for awhile but I sort of grew up and realized who I was, what I wanted to say. I think country music is the best music in the world and I'm glad to be doing a country album. I hope people will love it as much as I loved making it.
— Lucy Hale
My mother hoped I would meet a nice doctor or barrister or accountant who would marry me and take me to live in what is now called Fashionable Dublin Four. But she felt that this was a vain hope. I was a bit loud to make a nice professional wife, and anyway, I was too keen on spending my holidays in far flung places to meet any of these people.
— Maeve Binchy
I hope that I inspire women to believe in themselves, no matter where they come from; no matter what education they have; what particular background they originate from.
— Madonna Ciccone
I hope it never gets to that point that I'm gonna have people around me that are using me. I'm very good with noticing that.
I hope I'm wrong, but I am afraid that Iraq is going to turn out to be the greatest disaster in American foreign policy - worse than Vietnam, not in the number who died, but in terms of its unintended consequences and its reverberation throughout the region.
I hope I'm remembered as the king of the world, the noble man who united all the nations of the earth. But that probably won't happen.
— Macaulay Culkin
I hope to see an integrated solution created to deal with both the local pollution problem and the global climate change problem.
I believe that the Tibetans should have the right to control their own destinies and decide for themselves whether they want to be part of China or not. But this view isn't shared by most Chinese, or even the leaders of most Western democracies. As long as the Communist Party is in power, there is little hope for Tibet.
— Ma Jian
Being insecure - I'm a master, a virtuoso - they can be handing me the keys to the kingdom and all I can think is, I hope I don't drop the key.
— M. Night Shyamalan

— Lynn Schusterman
I sing because I love it. People may come to my shows because they are curious about 'Wonder Woman' but I hope they return because they enjoy my singing.
— Lynda Carter
I remember when we were in Egypt as refugees. It was tough, but there was always hope - hope that there's light at the end of the tunnel.
I think it's always important to constantly keep the band on their toes and try new things that you hope will work. That's how 'Apologize' was born, and maybe down the line another little song will be born by that mentality. I've always really liked that song.
I think Liverpool have a long history with many great players. I hope one day to be up there with those great players. I'll try my best to write some history here.
— Luis Suarez

— Luigi Pirandello
The actors I admire, like Ben Kingsley or Daniel Day-Lewis, they totally reinvent themselves in every part. I hope I get a chance to do that.
— Lucy Punch
In this world you've just got to hope for the best and prepare for the worst and take whatever God sends.
— Lucy Maud Montgomery
I'd been the girl, aged about 10, who'd twirl around her bedroom each night in the hope of waking up the following morning, having been transformed into Wonder Woman.
— Lucy Davis
I think I'm brave because I've made decisions based - I hope not entirely selfishly - on what I think is right for me to do next.
I've been acting since I was five, and I hope it's something I can do forever. I love it.
— Madison Pettis
Susan B. Anthony must be turning in her grave if she knew that millions of women who have the right to vote are not exercising it. Why? Because they haven't got the interest or the time, or they have just given up hope.
— Madeleine M. Kunin
We hope, for anyone else trying to make a dream come true, they can find the faith to keep going in 'Fly' when they're about to give up.
— Maddie Marlow
I hope people don't think I'm crazy, because I'm not.
I know the government needs to ensure economic growth... we just hope it takes care of the environment, too.
My hope is that the Chinese government will come to realise that it is futile to repress free speech, and that contrary to what they believe a regime's strength rests not its suppression of a plurality of opinions and ideas, but in its capacity and willingness to encourage them.
When they see those fourteen lights, they're looking at a miracle. And deep down, they feel that whatever's going to happen, there will be someone there to help them. And that fills them with hope.

— Lynn Good
I hope we can form a community where a woman can speak up about abuse and not suffer another abuse by not being believed and instead being ridiculed.
— Lupita Nyong'o
I've had letters from people who have read my articles and said, 'I'm a guy, I'm 18, and I've not come out to my mom and dad yet, but it was so nice to hear your story, and you know, I wish your article would have been longer, because you gave me hope for the future.'
— Luke Evans
I've loved every minute playing for Arsenal, and I hope I have left my mark on the club and fans alike.

— Ludwig Mies van der Rohe
I just hope that the democratic will of the Zimbabwean people prevails. If it does we must move quickly to help restore stability and prosperity.

— Lucy Lawless
