Infinite Jest - David Foster Wallace

This quote was added by srspnda
Almost nothing important that ever happens to you happens because you engineer it. Destiny has no beeper; destiny always leans trench-coated out of an alley with some sort of 'psst' that you usually can't even hear because you're in such a rush to go to or from something important you've tried to engineer.
