“You know the saying 'seeing is believing'? It's a problem, when you think about it. I mean, it's reasonable for people to want proof before they accept something they've been told. I do.

― Kate A. Boorman, What We Buried

“She was in the right place at the right time last night, safe inside when the tree came down.
One thing different—an extra piece of sandpaper outside when she needed it, the tree falling a bit sooner—and she would be gone. One thing different—hitting a red light instead of a green one on the way to the freeway, choosing another errand to run that day—and my dad and Ben would still be here.
It’s not right that something so big, your entire life, depends on a million tiny things.”
― Ally Condie, Summerlost
