Life is a school of probability

Life is a school of probability

Summary

This quote implies that life is essentially a series of random events and uncertain outcomes. It suggests that we are constantly faced with situations where the outcome is uncertain, and we must navigate these unpredictable circumstances as best as we can. Similar to a school, life provides us with opportunities for learning and growth as we navigate through the probabilities and uncertainties that come our way. To succeed in life, we must be adaptable, make informed decisions, and accept that there will always be an element of chance involved.
