If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011
Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.

People use the normal saying as if there is some mysterious positive plan that is in the works and you'll find out soon why this happened. It's more like... you've made a shit load of bad choices and should probably reflect on what you did that got you here!
The way you phrase it emphasizes the human element controlling our fate rather than holding ourselves captive to a destiny that has our best interest at heart, even if the reality is shit right now. I like your way better.Larry David was once being heckled, long before any success. Heckler says "I'm taking my dog over to fuck your mother, weekly." Larry responds "I hate to tell you this, but your dog isn't liking it."
