Quote of the day

I watched Crimes and Misdemeanors last night. These are the final words of the film.

We are all faced throughout our lives with agonizing decisions, moral choices. Some are on a grand scale. Most of these choices are of less importance. But we define ourselves by the choices we have made. We are in fact the sum total of our choices. Events unfold so unpredictably, so unfairly, human happiness does not seem to be included in the design of the creation. It is only we, with our capacity to love that give meaning to the indifferent universe.
