Miguel SyjucoOh, sweetheart. What can anyone do? That's just the way things are. You really think you can change the world?
About This Quote
This is a somewhat ambiguous quote, but I think it's referring to the fact that there are certain things that are just "the way things are." It's not something that the speaker can change, even if she really wants to. This statement is probably talking about the fact that people are unhappy with how their lives are turning out. The speaker has tried to do everything she could to change things, but the results haven't changed. She doesn't know what else she can do.
