yidquotes:

This is it. There is no way of getting all you want. There is no particular reason why you lost out on some things. The world is not necessarily just. Being good often does not pay off and there is no compensation for misfortune. You don’t really control anything. You can’t make anyone love you. No one is stronger or weaker than anyone else. Everyone is, in his own way, vulnerable. We have only ourselves and one another. That may not seem much but it is all there is. You are free to do what you like, you need only face the consequences.
