Bottom line is, even if you see 'em coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really. But it does. So what are we, helpless? Puppets? No. The big moments are gonna come. You can't help that. It's what you do afterwards that counts. That's when you find out who you are. Joss Whedon
About This Quote

This quote is by the author of the book, "What The Dog Saw". This book is about what happened when a man's dog was diagnosed with cancer and how he tried to handle it. While the book was written to the man in question, his dog, it is still a great quote. The book itself is an inspiration, and it teaches us that we are not in control of life and we can't change it. Also, we need to look at our lives in the future and learn from it and keep moving forward even in the hard times.
