Sum of our choices

“We're all faced throughout our lives with agonizing decisions, moral choices. Some are on a grand scale, most of these choices are on lesser points. But we define ourselves by the choices we have made.We are in fact the sum total of our choices.”


-crimes and misdemeanors(1989)

the choices we make..

"I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element.It is my personal approach that creates the climate.It is my daily mood that makes the weather.I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous.I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration.I can humiliate or humor,hurt or heal.In all situations,it is my response that decides whether a crises is escalated or de-escalated,and a person is humanized or de-humanized."

-Goethe
