About This Quote
When you are told that someone died, it may effect you differently than you thought because of the notion that what happens is fact, not truth. This means that what has happened is not necessarily true, but it is a fact. This quote shows that the world isn’t always as it should be. It’s not supposed to be perfect and there are times when people will have bad things happen to them. Still, there are times when the world works in your favor.
