Quote by John Marsden
What's the Future? It's a blank sheet of paper, and we draw lines on it, but sometimes our hand is held, and the lines we draw aren't the lines we wanted.
Summary
This quote suggests that the future is uncertain and malleable. The "blank sheet of paper" symbolizes the possibilities and potential of the future. However, external factors or circumstances beyond our control can limit our choices and hinder us from shaping the future we desire. It speaks to the idea that while we have some agency to create our own path, our actions are sometimes influenced or constrained by forces outside our own volition.
