"If you haven't the strength to impose your own terms upon life, you must accept the terms it offers you."
What this means is that you shouldn't worry and fret about never having things your way, or having time to do what you want to do, because you have to spend all your time doing things you dont want to do - you either do what you want and the rest of the world be damned, or you meekly allow the rest of the world to tell you what to do.
Bob has decided to tell life where to put its 'terms'. To be honest, I think life gave up offering her terms for fear of being abusively rebuffed some time ago but Im not mentioning that.
I would also like to mention that being of the feline persuasion, I don't accept terms from anyone, Blob can attest to this as she caught me scaling her book shelves this morning in an attempt to get the cat treats she so foolishly left up near the top somewhere having said 'No More' last night. Granted, I wasn't as subtle as I could have been and some ornaments went flying so and she moved the treats and i have no idea where they are now - but this doesn't mean i am accepting her terms - it merely means that i am biding my time because at some point she will give away their location.
Its a waiting game, nothing to do with terms.
Honestly - no terms being agreed to here.

T.S Eliot is very wise. Unfortunately, his wisdom is marginally negated by his name being an anagram of toilets.
