I do believe in fate and destiny, but I also believe we are only fated to do the things that we&#039;d choose anyway. And I&#039;d choose you; in a hundred lifetimes, in a hundred worlds, in any version of reality, I&#039;d find you and I&#039;d choose you&rdquo; <br /> ― Kiersten White, The Chaos of Stars
