Is not what we find in evidence
Hi
Frances believes that hope is not what we find in evidence,
it’s what we become in action.
I'm not sure what Mrs Frances means.
My understanding is that when we see the evidence for something, for example that fewer people fall ill with diabetes - it doesn't make us hopeful, it's action, doing something which makes us hopeful.

Yes, something like that. She's saying that hope doesn't stem from what we find in the evidence, but that we embody or impersonate hope when we take action.

Knowledge is what we get from the data. Hope is what we do about it.
eg Polio cases are only found in parts of Nigeria and Pakistan,
By doing a campaign of administering vaccines to many of the children, we hope to eradicate polio from the world.
