I was just going to stand here and watch it happen. I wasn’t going to say a fucking thing. Why? Because what did it matter? What did any of it matter?

About This Quote

How many times do you think something bad happens to you, or someone close to you? I bet you don't think about it every day, but there are times when it's all that keeps you up at night. You start to wonder why the hell are you still alive, or why are you even alive? Then one day, the power of the moment crashes over you and makes you feel like shit. That is what this quote is about. When someone sees bad things happen, they don't take any action against them.

They just stand there and watch them happen. They make no effort to stop them or make it better. This quote says that if something bad happened to them, they wouldn't do anything about it because they would rather stand there and watch it happen than make a difference in their world.
