Silius Italicus
Many have been ruined by their fortunes, and many have escaped ruin by the want of fortune. To obtain it the great have become little, and the little great.
Johann Georg Zimmermann
Moderation has been called a virtue to limit the ambition of great men, and to console undistinguished people for their want of fortune and their lack of merit.
Benjamin Disraeli
My face has always been my fortune anyway, not my body.
Claire Bloom
My fortune somewhat resembled that of a person who should entertain an idea of committing suicide, and, altogether beyond his hopes, meet with the good hap to be murdered.
Nathaniel Hawthorne
My whole life was foretold to me. An old Romany gypsy read my fortune.

Necessity of action takes away the fear of the act, and makes bold resolution the favorite of fortune.
Francis Quarles
No man ever wetted clay and then left it, as if there would be bricks by chance and fortune.
Plutarch
No man is poor who does not think himself so. But if in a full fortune with impatience he desires more, he proclaims his wants and his beggarly condition.
Jeremy Taylor
No matter what your laundry list of requirements in choosing a mate, there has to be an element of good luck and good fortune and good timing.
Patty Duke
No modest man ever did or ever will make a fortune.
Mary Wortley Montagu

Euripides
Noble bold is an accident of fortune; noble actions characterize the great.
Carlo Goldoni
Not many men have both good fortune and good sense.
Marilyn French
Nothing is more dangerous to men than a sudden change of fortune.
Quintilian
Nowadays nothing but money counts: a fortune brings honors, friendships; the poor man everywhere lies low.
Ovid
O, once in each man's life, at least, Good luck knocks at his door; And wit to seize the flitting guest Need never hunger more. But while the loitering idler waits Good luck beside his fire, The bold heart storms at fortune's gates, And conquers its desire.
Lewis J. Bates
