“Story is what happens to people.”
“News in not what happened but a story about what happened.”
“Stories aren’t the beauty of what did happen. They’re the beauty of what could happen.”
“And the moral of the story is that you don’t remember what happened. What you remember becomes what happened.”
“Stories only happen to people who can tell them.”
“...What happens is of little significance compared with the stories we tell ourselves about what happens. Events matter little, only stories of events affect us.”
