All roads lead to rome

No matter what path you take, you will always end up in the same place. Represents an inevitabilistic worldview, one where you cannot do anything to change what will happen. That what is happening, no matter how bad it seems, was destined to happen. All

Rome symbolizes something you can't avoid. Could be a place. A feeling. A person. And thus, the detached emotional state of finding yourself in a lonely and depressing, yet familiar situation. Or, it could represent life and death. In a lifetime, you lose everything. People you know; people you love, and eventually, yourself. There is nothing you can do to stop the cycle of life from occurring.

Life is a constant struggle of moving on from the things that happened in the past. People lie to you. Bad things happen to you. Can you really forget these things? No, you always end up back in Rome.

The white rabbit from Alice in Wonderland, commonly associated with this statement, symbolizes the anxiety caused by the unstoppable passage of time. Time is always ticking, and time is the separation between past loss, current joy, and future loss. Slowly but surely, you will lose everything until you experience the ultimate loss: Your life.

No matter what, all good things must come to an end.
Person 1: No matter what, every relationship I'm in ends in heartbreak. Is it all my fault?
Person 2: No, son, all roads lead to Rome.

Person 1: I love video games. However, every time I have fun on a game, it eventually gets boring, and I switch to a new game. The cycle never ends.

Person 2: You're just wasting time, kid. All roads lead to Rome.

It's all good

An urban restatement of consoling aphorisms such as "Every cloud has a silver lining" or "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger," indicating that all life experiences help by contributing to our learning, even if just as cautionary examples.
Hiker 1: Wow, stepping in that badger trap hurt like hell!

Hiker 2: It's all good. You'll watch where you step now.
