    Marcus Cole in Babylon 5 had a line that stuck with me:

    I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, ‘wouldn’t it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them?’ So now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe.

      That’s one of my favorite quotes, so thanks for reminding me. Also, I may have to watch some B5 this weekend.
