Read through the most famous quotes by topic #fortune




I have been so very, very fortunate in my life. I've met or been in contact with several of my childhood heroes. I've interacted with people all over this planet, and even though I couldn't possibly hope to remember all their names, I remember a photograph, a poem, a sound, a joke, kind words of encouragement. All is not lost.


Wayne Gerard Trotman

[W]hen someone finds himself quite unjustly attacked and hated on all sides, there is no need for such a person to feel dismayed by misfortune. See how Fortune, who has harmed many a one, is so inconstant, for God, Who opposes all wrong deeds, raises up those in whom hope dwells.


Christine de Pizan

Normality wasn't in the days I'd left behind me: it was only to be found in whatever fortune placed in my path each morning.


María Dueñas

Fortune love you.


William Shakespeare


#good-fortune #luck #love

Say farewell to luck when winning. It is the way of the gamblers of reputation. Quite as important as a gallant advance is a well-planned retreat. Lock up your winnings when they are enough, or when great. Continuous luck is always suspect; more secure is that which changes. Though half bitter and half sweet, it is more satisfying to the taste. The more luck pyramids, the greater the danger of slip and collapse. For luck always compensates her intensity by her brevity. Fortune wearies of carrying anyone long upon her shoulders.


Baltasar Gracián

That is a dream also; only he has remained asleep, while you have awakened; and who knows which of you is the most fortunate?


Alexandre Dumas

I regained my soul through literature after those times I'd lost it to wild-eyed gypsy girls on the European streets.


Roman Payne

The final hour when we cease to exist does not itself bring death; it merely of itself completes the death-process. We reach death at that moment, but we have been a long time on the way.


Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Calamities are of two kinds: misfortunes to ourselves, and good fortune to others.


Ambrose Bierce

In sleep, you are safe from the revolting mechanics of living and being a prey to outrageous fortune.
