“A pound of pluck is worth a ton of luck.”
James A. Garfield
“There's always the same amount of good luck and bad luck in the world. If one person doesn't get the bad luck, somebody else will have to get it in their place. There's always the same amount of good and evil, too. We can't eradicate evil, we can only evict it, force it to move across town. And when evil moves, some good always goes with it. But we can never alter the ratio of good to evil. All we can do is keep things stirred up so neither good nor evil solidifies. That's when things get scary. Life is like a stew, you have to stir it frequently, or all the scum rises to the top.”
Tom Robbins
“To brag little - to show well - to crow gently, if in luck - to pay up, to own up, and to shut up, if beaten, are the virtues of a sporting man”
Oliver Wendell Holmes
“Luck, bad if not good, will always be with us. But it has a way of favoring the intelligent and showing its back to the stupid.”
John Dewey
