About This Quote
Jack Kerouac’s “The splendid thingabout falling apartsilently…is thatyou can start overas many times as you like” captures the idea that it’s not what happens to us, but how we react to what happens. If we go through a rough patch and face our problems head-on, we can bounce back as many times as we like. When we become overwhelmed by life’s challenges, however, we can crumble under the pressure.
