The expression "cockeyed optimist" is famously attributed to the character Nellie Forbush in the musical "South Pacific," written by Rodgers and Hammerstein in 1949. In the song "I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair," Nellie describes herself as a "cockeyed optimist" to convey her naively hopeful outlook on life and love. The term itself suggests an overly optimistic perspective, often tinged with a sense of absurdity or impracticality. This blend of optimism and a hint of whimsy has since entered popular usage.
