Jane AustenWhich of all my important nothings shall I tell you first?
About This Quote
The greatest nothings are the ones that are not important at all. Imagine if you will, a series of small insignificant events that lead to one big thing. For example, you might walk out of your house and find your bicycle missing. Your first reaction would be to wonder where it went.
Eventually, however, you may come to realize that what seemed like a huge deal at the time was really nothing more than an annoyance. The smallest things matter the most in the end.
