“Live as brave men; and if fortune is adverse, front its blows with brave hearts.”
Marcus Tullius Cicero
“There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.”
William Shakespeare
“There is a tide in the affairs of men, which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. We must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.”
“There are certainly are not so many men of large fortune in the world as there are of pretty woman to deserve them.”
Jane Austen
“One should go invited to a friend in good fortune, and uninvited in misfortune”
Swedish Proverb
“A man's best fortune, or his worst, is his wife”
Thomas Fuller
“There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune; Omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in shallows and in miseries.”
