About This Quote
Tragedy cleans the windows of the soul by washing away the bias of our lives in the detergent of pain. People often say, "It could have been worse!" or "It could have been me!" to indicate that tragedy has taught them a lesson. Often, this results in people deciding that they will never, ever do anything that could possibly cause them physical or emotional pain again. However, I think that tragedy can actually be used as a way to learn how to better cope with life's ups and downs.
