“It may have happened, it may not have happened but it could have happened.”

“Sydney: Ever had that happen? Once you can’t have something, you want it that much more.”
Adrian: “Yes. It happens all the time.”

“Time is what keeps things from happening all at once.”

“If such a thing had happened once, it must surely have happened many times in this galaxy of a hundred billion suns.”

“Life has many ways of testing a person's will, either by having nothing happen at all or by having everything happen all at once.”

“Time exists in order that everything doesn’t happen all at once…and space exists so that it doesn’t all happen to you.”

“Things Happen and once they start happening you pretty much just to hold on for dear life and see where they drop you when they stop.”

“An event of colossal and overwhelming significance may happen all at once, but the words which describe it have to come one by one in a long chain.”

“All the adversity I've had in my life, all my troubles and obstacles, have strengthened me... You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you.”
