• Adventures are funny things.
  Many are merely happy accidents—a single spark that ignites an unexpected chain of events.
  But some adventures are meant for you and you alone.
  And whether you want them or not, they seek you out of a great crowd and take you somewhere you never thought you’d go.
  Often, these unlooked for adventures require a sacrifice too great to imagine.

• In short, the early receivers of the new money in this market chain of events gain at the expense of those who receive the money toward the end of the chain, and still worse losers are the people (e.g., those on fixed incomes such as annuities, interest, or pensions) who never receive the new money.

• This is how one pictures the angel of history. His face is turned toward the past. Where we perceived a chain of events, he sees one single catastrophe which keeps piling wreckage and hurls it in front of his feet. The angel would like to stay, awaken the dead, and make whole what has been smashed. But a storm is blowing from Paradise; it has got caught in his wings with such violence that the angel can no longer close them. This storm irresistably propels him into the future to which his back is turned, while the pile of debris before him grows skyward. The storm is what we call progress.

• It's much harder to say "I'm going to kill three of the biggest characters in your universe in a gruesome bloodbath." There can be a lot of differing opinions in a mainstream comic book, you know? "Rogue would never do this!" But I can say, "No, Rogue suffered the death of Charles Xavier and it broke her down and she stumbled into a dark place and she started fixating on the Scarlet Witch as the cause of it all" — which, there is a logical chain of events that lead to the Scarlet Witch. And in the confusion, she thought Wanda was up to doing it again and she did what she thought was best.

• The success that comes from my books is not something I feel very comfortable with. Past a certain point you have to accept the idea that the success is a lot to do with the timing and luck and that divorces you from it massively. There are aspects of it that I haven't got used to at all. But I've enjoyed some parts of it massively. It relates to the same reason I did a lot of backpacking — partly for the experience — it's something to tell my grandkids. It's a weird chain of events to have in your life.

• In one point of view, we, the abolitionists and colored people, should meet [the Dred Scott] decision, unlooked for and monstrous as it appears, in a cheerful spirit.

• Pase lo que pase, dicen después, habrá sido el destino. La gente siempre está un poco confundida al respecto, como en el caso de los milagros. Cuando alguien se salva de una muerte segura por una extraña concatenación de circunstancias, dicen que eso es un milagro. Pero, por supuesto, si alguien muere por una extraña cadena de acontecimientos -el petróleo derramado justo ahí, la valla de seguridad rota justo ahí-, eso también debe ser un milagro. Que no sea agradable no significa que no sea milagroso.

• The only way of expressing emotion in the form of art is by finding an "objective correlative"; in other words, a set of objects, a situation, a chain of events which shall be the formula for that particular emotion; such that when the external facts, which must terminate in sensory experience, are given, the emotion is immediately evoked.

• Las decisiones que tomes hoy son importantes. Cada decisión orienta tu vida en la dirección que vas a tomar. Ninguna decisión es una elección aislada. Es una cadena de acontecimientos. Si eliges sabiamente, tu futuro lo reflejará. Pero si no eliges sabiamente, las decisiones que tomes ahora te llevarán a lugares en los que no querrás estar más adelante.
