I think that choice actually does matter. It's your choices that lead to effects and consequences and many times, there is a lot of different options someone can take. For example, in this election, if the majority of Americans voted for Mccain instead of Obama, politics would take a different turn that if Obama had won.

I think that Deanna said this thinking/knowing that some choices are not in her power and she has no decision or say in what choice is made. I do think that the way Deanna would act depending on whatever decision was made would have some affect on the outcome. I feel that Deanna's quote is untrue and is her way of making herself feel insignificant, which is ironic because throughout the book I see Deanna as a strong character.
