Fate leads him who follows it, and drags him who resist.

Summary

This quote implies that there is a certain force, called fate, governing one's life. It suggests that those who align themselves with fate and go along with its direction will find themselves led and guided towards their destined path. On the other hand, individuals who resist or go against the flow of fate will inevitably be pulled and dragged along, unable to escape the inevitability of their predetermined course. This quote highlights the idea that there may be limited control over one's destiny and emphasizes the importance of accepting and embracing the path that is laid out by fate.
