The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth.

It's no good crying over spilt milk, because all the forces of the universe were bent on spilling it

Each of us literally chooses, by his way of attending to things, what sort of universe he shall appear to himself to inhabit

I feel like I am either on the cusp of something great, or standing on the edge of my abyss, discovering something brand new, or uncovering somebody elses lost imagination.

Totus mundus agit histrionem. (All the World's a Stage.)"

[Motto of William Shakespeare's Globe Theatre (f. 1599) and its acting company, The King's Men; taken from the first play to be performed on the new stage.]

I was convinced I had overdrawn my balance of good fortune; that whatever haphazard benevolence the impassive universe might hold towards me was all but gone.
