Charles Dickens Quotes

Every moment in your life is a turning and every one a choosing. Somewhere you made a choice. All followed to this. The accounting is scrupulous. The shape is drawn. No line can be erased. I had no belief in your ability to move a coin to your bidding. How could you? A person's path through the world seldom changes and even more seldom will it change abruptly. And the shape of your path was visible from the beginning.

Nothing is inevitable until it happens.

I think everything is pretty well preordained - even your mistakes.

The fates will lead you to the future or drag you there.

Does the walker choose the path, or the path the walker?

Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate.

There are two futures, the future of desire and the future of fate, and man's reason has never learned to separate them.

I do not believe anything comes by chance. I regard the present as the necessary child of a necessary past.

He who chooses the beginning of the road chooses the place it leads to. It is the means that determines the end.

Fate leads him who follows it, and drags him who resist.

Actions are the seed of fate deeds grow into destiny.

I think 'destiny' is just a fancy word for a psychological pattern.

Fate is for losers.

Our character...is an omen of our destiny

Nothing ever happens till it happens.

There are always those moments in football - and life in general - which can decide the path and the route you go down.

When you make a choice, you change the future.

Things don't happen for no reason.

Fatalism is a false premise. What will be is not necessarily what must be.

There's no way to know what makes one thing happen and not another. What leads to what. What destroys what. What causes what to flourish or die or take another course.

It seems to me further, that it is very odd that fate should leave so careful a trail, and spend so little time preparing the one that must follow it.

Everything that happens, happens of necessity.

There is no luck in life, everything happens for a reason. Every little thing that you do... leads up to a bigger thing. And that's the story of my life.

The ending is nearer than you think, and it is already written. All that we have left to choose is the correct moment to begin.
