What would come, would come...and you would have to meet it, when it did.

My love, we can close our eyes but we cannot stop the sunrise.

Not a whit, we defy augury: there's a specialprovidence in the fall of a sparrow. If it be now,'tis not to come; if it be not to come, it will benow; if it be not now, yet it will come: thereadiness is all.
