Anthony Mackie Quotes

As a person, I am totally obsessed with the choices and decisions we make in our lives and how they dictate the course of our lives. Seemingly random choices that we make end up defining everything.

You know, in life there are only three or four fundamental decisions to make. The rest is just luck.

It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.

I've always been obsessed about how people choose - or are destined - for the paths they take.

It's strange how parts come along, how life lives us, and what we get to do with the abilities that are given us.

My whole life has been decided by fate.

There's a point at which we make our lives, but we also take the path which is given to us.

I don't think I've decided much in my life. Don't you think life just happens?

I had no ambition to go to America and be in a TV show. It's not like I've rejected something or decided that I've found something better. Your life just takes you off in strange and different directions.

Fate is like a train. When it flies past, you can choose if you want to get on it or not, to say no or say yes.

No one's born with their destiny stamped on their forehead ... we make the choices to fulfill our destiny.

Our lives will depend upon the decisions which we make, for decisions determine destiny.

Decisions determine destiny.

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.

Life is mere chance only when one allows it to be.

The life we receive is not always what we choose.

Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate.

Life is full of confusion. Confusion of love, passion, and romance. Confusion of family and friends. Confusion with life itself. What path we take, what turns we make. How we roll our dice.

We are not permitted to choose the frame of our destiny. But what we put into it is ours.

The days, months, and years eventually reveal, like a Polaroid, a clear picture of how significant events and decisions ultimately shape our lives.

I was thinking about how fleeting and precious life is. Life is also arbitrary. For example, the choices that you make, the luck of being born into the right bed, to parents who support and help you and who love you. That doesn't always happen - and then, what happens when it doesn't?

I believe that fate is choices - it's not chance.

Each player must accept the cards life deals him or her: but once they are in hand, he or she alone must decide how to play the cards in order to win the game.

Character and fate are two words for the same thing.

You have a choice. Live or die. Every breath is a choice. Every minute is a choice. To be or not to be.
