Charlie Sheen Quotes

There is a great suspicion of saying that anyone, especially a child, is 'the product of destiny,' or 'formed by fate,' or 'predestined for a certain life.' I am suspicious, too, of efforts to cage children or adults in preconceived ideas of who they are or should be.

And when man faces destiny, destiny ends and man comes into his own.

Who am I to say anybody can't do what they want to do and create their own destiny if they believe in something?

Do you believe you can change your destiny?' he (Sajhë) said, seeking an answer. Alice found herself nodding. 'Otherwise, what's the point? If we are simply walking a path preordained, then all the experiences that make us who we are - love, grief, joy, learning, changing - would count for nothing.

My conclusion is that there is no reason to believe any of the dogmas of traditional theology and, further, that there is no reason to wish that they were true. Man, in so far as he is not subject to natural forces, is free to work out his own destiny. The responsibility is his, and so is the opportunity.

We live out our lives as we are meant to live them-with some choice, with some chance, but mostly as a result of the persons we are.

No cause has he to say his doom is harsh, who's made the master of his destiny.

One possible reason that I don't believe in fate is that I wasn't fated to.

If you make a choice that goes against what everyone else thinks, the world will not fall apart.

No attempt must be made to encase man, for it is his destiny to be set free.

I do believe in choice, the freedom of choice and carving out your own happiness.

Every path but your own is the path of fate. Keep on your own track, then.

Believe in fate, but lean forward where fate can see you.

All you can do everyday, is do what you believe is right. That's what I do, and what will be, will be.

All of us are what we have to be and everyone lives the kind of life its in him to live.

The man who believes that the secrets of the world are forever hidden lives in mystery and fear. Superstition will drag him down. The rain will erode the deeds of his life. But that man who sets himself the task of singling out the thread of order from the tapestry will by the decision alone have taken charge of the world and it is only by such taking charge that he will effect a way to dictate the terms of his own fate.

Of course you have to believe in destiny; that everything is sheer chance is an intolerable notion.

No man or woman can live another's fate

More than anything else, I believe it's our decisions, not the conditions of our lives that determine our destiny.

Blood is not destiny.

Anyone can achieve their fullest potential, who we are might be predetermined, but the path we follow is always of our own choosing. We should never allow our fears or the expectations of others to set the frontiers of our destiny. Your destiny can't be changed but, it can be challenged. Every man is born as many men and dies as a single one.

You can't hang around waiting for somebody else to pull your strings. Destiny's what you make of it. You have to face whatever life throws at you. And if it throws more than you'd like, more than you think you can handle? Well then you just have to find the heroism within yourself and play out the hand you've been dealt. The universe never sets a challenge that can't be met. You just need to believe in yourself in order to find the strength to face it.

I also believe that everyone needs to think independently and make their own decisions on what makes the most sense.

Choice is the essence of what I believe it is to be human.

Only on the surface of things have I ever trod the beaten path. So long as I could keep from hurting anyone else, I have lived, as completely as it was possible, the life of my choice. I have been free. . . . I have done the work I wished to do for the sake of that work alone.
