Split Second (Split Second, #1)

“So is this really what the universe is? A preordained game that has already been played? We can cheer however we want to, but we can’t affect the outcome.”

If I’m struggling with a problem, I tell myself, it doesn’t matter, either I solved it, or I didn’t. Either things worked out, or they didn’t. But either way it’s already happened. It’s already locked in. Just as the past has already been laid down and I have no power to change it, so has the future. I just don’t know it yet.”
