Some people think that a place can save them... Like if they could just be somewhere else, their lives would be totally different. They could finally be the people they always wanted to be. But to me, a place is just a place. If you really want things to change, you can make them change no matter where you are. Hannah Harrington
About This Quote

A place is just a place, no matter where it is. If you want things to change, you can make them change no matter where you are. I have seen people who have failed in life after life, trying to find a better place to live. They might move away to some distant place like some far-off island, hoping that they will finally be happy, but the truth is that they will be miserable there too.

People think that if they could just live somewhere else or somewhere different, they would finally love their lives, but the truth is that whether you are in New York City or some deserted island, life is still the same. It’s all about how you choose to look at it and how you choose to act on it.
