About This Quote
People don't really change, they just adapt to circumstances. A person’s character is formed by their upbringing and the influences of their life. However, most people will change when they are in different situations. The way a person acts will change.
A person may feel differently during certain times in their life. Those changes will happen because the person has adapted to the situation.
