Life is so uncertain: you never know what could happen. One way to deal with that is to keep your pajamas washed.
Always plan for the worst, child; that way, all your surprises will be pleasant ones.
To me, a song like 'Demons' or the title 'Trouble Will Find Me' are acknowledgments that you can't really plan for life, and you can't plan for trouble.
The thrill of not knowing what's going to happen, trained me to be prepared for anything.
Foresight is not about predicting the future, it's about minimizing surprise.
To be prepared against surprise is to be trained. To be prepared for surprise is to be educated.
There are no accidents so unlucky but the prudent may draw some advantage from them.
You've got to expect things are going to go wrong. And we always need to prepare ourselves for handling the unexpected.
We must care to think about the unthinkable things, because when things become unthinkable, thinking stops and action becomes mindless.
If you're not overprepared, you're underprepared.
If I had known things would turn out this way, I would have trained harder. I would have learned to take care of myself. But I guess that's the point, isn't it? You never know what you're going to have to face, so you'd better be prepared.
One can have only as much preparation as he has foresight.
I'm just trying to do my part before I get hit by a bus.
Hope is man's preparation for the unknown.
