Quote by Stephen King

Life is fair. We all get the same nine-month shake in the box, and then the dice roll. Some people get a run of sevens. Some people, unfortunately, get snake-eyes. Its just how the world is.

Summary

This quote suggests that life is inherently fair because everyone starts off with the same chance, represented by the nine-month period in the womb. However, once we are born, luck plays a significant role, portrayed by the metaphorical roll of the dice. Some individuals experience fortunate circumstances, symbolized by rolling sevens, while others encounter unfortunate situations, represented by rolling snake-eyes (rolling two ones). The quote ultimately implies that life is a combination of equal opportunity and unpredictable outcomes, reflecting the realities of the world we live in.

Wars, wars, wars': reading up on the region I came across one moment when quintessential Englishness had in fact intersected with this darkling plain.

The Kaiser was 'resplendent in the uniform of the White Silesian Cuirassiers' and his massed and regimented infantry...Strange to find Winston Churchill and Sylvia Plath both choosing the word 'roller,' in both its juggernaut and wavelike declensions, for that scene.
