One must choose between making a man or a citizen, for one cannot make both at the same time.[Il faut opter entre faire un homme ou un citoyen; car on ne peut faire à la fois l’un et l’autre.]
Once you choose hope, anything’s possible.
Life is all about allowing people choices to be who they want. But the majority of people choose to be worthless.
Just because fate has chosen something for you instead of you choosing it for yourself doesn’t mean it has to be bad.
It’s better to make the wrong choice, than to make no choice at all.
It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.
It is not for me to judge another person’s life. Only for myself alone, I must decide, I must chose, I must refuse.
In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.
I’m claiming the right to be unhappy.
I have the choice of being constantly active and happy or introspectively passive and sad. Or I can go mad by ricocheting in between.
I have given you power of choice, and you only alternate between futile speculation and unconsidered action.
I had rather have a fool to make me merry than experience to make me sad – and to travel for it too.
