So, I'm reading this book called An Abundance of Katherines by John Green. I'm not very far into the book yet - but last night while reading I came across an interesting quote. The main character in the book, Colin, is thinking about why things have happened in his life the way that they have when he is reminded of a quote by Democritus. {Democritus was an Ancient Greek philosopher - he is considered to be the "father of modern science."}
Here is the quote:
"Everywhere man blames nature and fate, yet his fate is mostly but the echo of his character and passions, his mistakes and weaknesses."
Think about what this quote could mean and draw a picture to represent its meaning.
