1 " No one has the ability to laugh at their misfortunes like the women of the East End. "
― Philip Ridley , Ghost from a Perfect Place
2 " But why, everybody asks, am I not blessed by fortune (or at least not as blessed as I would like to be)? Why have I not been favored like others who are less deserving? No one believes their misfortunes are attributable to any shortcomings of their own; that is why they must find a culprit. "
― Umberto Eco , The Prague Cemetery
3 " If we let the drama of others’ lives become our own, then we are no longer ourselves. We become the reflections of others’ dramas and their lives, their tragedies, and their misfortunes become our own. "
― Stephen Richards , How to Get Everything You Can Imagine: Volume 1: How Mind Power Works
