About This Quote

Many people feel that life is unfair and that they have been dealt a bad hand. They hate the way things have turned out, but they resent even more the fact that it is their own doing. This quotation from William Styron expresses a deep-seated need to be in control of our lives and to punish or punish someone else for our negative experiences. By blaming others, we convince ourselves that we have some power over our lives, when in reality we have very little control. However, by accepting life for what it is and letting go of our self-imposed guilt, we can experience a sense of peace and can trust that both life and people will work out for us in ways that are right for us.
