Summary

This quote suggests that the concept of chance is meaningless, because everything in the world must have a cause. It argues that events or outcomes perceived as random or unplanned are actually the result of underlying causes or factors. This challenges the idea that things can happen completely by chance and emphasizes the interconnectedness and causality that govern our reality.
