“All of us have bad luck and good luck. The man who persists through the bad luck - who keeps right on going - is the man who is there when the good luck comes - and is ready to receive it.”
Robert Collier
“Woman should stop going for the bad guys, stop looking so far when the good ones are right there.”
Jennifer Aniston
“Most of us regard good luck as our right, and bad luck as a betrayal of that right.”
William Feather
“What we call luck is the inner man externalized. We make things happen to us.”
Robertson Davies
“It's just not the right timing, not bad luck.”
Joan Colleen R. Katipunan
“We can't go anywhere without people wishing us luck. It's great to know that the nation will be right behind us when we take on the Aussies.”
Michael Vaughan
“The right merchant is one who has the just average of faculties we call common sense; a man of a strong affinity for facts, who makes up his decision on what he has seen. He is thoroughly persuaded of the truths of arithmetic. There is always a reason, in the man, for his good or bad fortune in making money. Men talk as if there were some magic about this. He knows that all goes on the old road, pound for pound, cent for cent / for every effect a perfect cause / and that good luck is another name for tenacity of purpose.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
