Haphard guess - sounds like BF Skinner? I also remember a sentiment similar to 
that from E.C. Tolman

What?  Aren't satisfied with the answer you got last time you asked
this question?  See:

However, to be fair, though the quote has been attributed to Margaret
Mead there is nothing on the web that identifies where or when Mead
made such a statement.  Nor does it appear on Wikiquote.  So, where
did it come from?  Perhaps the source is less important than the sentiment.

Consider the following quote:

|I did not direct my life. I didn’t design it. I never made decisions. 
|Things always came up and made them for me. That’s what life is.

Who allegedly said this?  Hint:  It's a psychologist.

P.S.  MacDonalds.  Just checking to see what the ads on the right
side of the screen will be on the Mail Archive website.  This just
popped up a day or two ago after a long respite.
