“Sometimes life has a cruel sense of humor, giving you the thing you always wanted at the worst time possible.”

“Because sometimes, and this is really important, the worst possible thing imaginable leads you to the place you were meant to be all along. Even in the most dire of times, life gives you a reason to give thanks.”

“That bitch fate has a cruel sense of humor.”

“If you want a thing--truly want it, want it so badly that you need it as you need air to breathe, then unless you die, you will have it. Why not? It has you. There is no escape. What a cruel and terrible thing escape would be if escape were possible”

“Once you hold the hand of Death, the only thing in life that can scare you is a sense of humor.”

“But sometimes you want things just because you think you're supposed to. And sometimes it's the things you never even knew you wanted that give your life the most meaning.”
