The second was a joke; a rephrasing of his own words.

Imric's Tips for Living

Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.

Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.

True, but

it also points out that you can't reason with someone who refuses to look at things reasonably or refuses to have an open mind about something.

But yeah, I wondered if the second part was a joke. I liked the first part best.
