There's always hope for better things in life. But you can't let anything, friend, lover, God himself, be your hope. You have to be your own hope.

Not typically. From Wikipedia:


Brunette literally means "little brown-haired girl" or "young brown-haired woman", but in modern English usage it has lost the diminutive meaning and refers simply to any brown-haired girl or woman, or the associated hair color. Although brunet is the masculine version of the popular diminutive form, used to describe a little boy or young man with brown hair, the use of brunet is uncommon in English. One is more likely to say, of a man or boy, "He has brown hair" or "He is brown-haired", than to say, "He is a brunette", (or brunet).
