About This Quote
"We're standing here, beat to shit, walking away from a crime scene where either or both of us could have bought it, and you're asking me to marry you?""Perfect timing. This quote is so simple, yet so deep. If neither of us was in any way involved in the situation, then that means that fate had something else in store for us. We are not gods of our own destinies, but just lucky people who get to keep on living.
When we get to the end of our lives, there is no accounting for how we got there. We may have been beaten down by life, but we all get a chance to rise again and live another day.
