| 444fac2 | For many have but one resource to sustain them in their misery, and that is to think, "Circumstances have been against me, I was worthy to be something much better than I have been. I admit I have never had a great love or a great friendship; but that is because I never met a man or a woman who were worthy of it; if I have not written any very good books, it is because I had not the leisure to do so; or, if I have had no children to whom I .. | life meaning | Jean-Paul Sartre | |

| 805bb85 | Whether or not belive in Fate comes down to one thing: who you blame when something goes wrong.
