“So is it just human nature to believe that things happen for a reason - to find some shred of meaning even in the worst experiences?”

“When something horrible happens, it's human nature to want to blame it on someone. We want someone to be held accountable, even though sometimes things just happen.”

“Either things happen for a reason, or they happen for no reason at all. Either one's life is a thread in a glorious tapestry or humanity is just a hopelessly tangled knot.”

“My experience is that if you're fighting for something you believe in—even if it means alienating some people along the way—things usually work out for the best in the end.”

“But believe me, just because the human mind can't imagine something happening… doesn't mean it won't.”

“Most people don't believe something can happen until it already has. That's not stupidity or weakness, that's just human nature.”

“Bad things are not the worst things that an happen to us. NOTHING is the worst thing that can happen to us.”

“That's the way it goes. Some things happen and some things don't. This one is obviously just wasn't meant to be. Except deep down… I still believe it was.”

“Find what’s hot, find what’s just opened and then look for the worst review of the week. There is so much to learn from watching a restaurant getting absolutely panned and having a bad experience. Go and see it for yourself.”

“Everything happens for a reason, Sadie, even bad things.”
