Quotes
My favorite quote is, “fortune is unpredictable and changeable.” It means to me that quite often we run into situations where we cannot figure out what is good or what is bad, therefore we must value every minute of life and live as if it were our last hour on earth. It tells me to make principled choices and decisions. I would like to pursue what I believe in.
