Text Quotes
Rejoicing in the good fortune of others is a practice that can help us when we feel emotionally shut down and unable to connect with others. Rejoicing generates good will  (Fortune Quotes) You have to do more than you get paid for because that’s where the fortune is  (Fortune Quotes) The best way to handle good fortune is to do something positive and useful with it. The best way to handle misfortune is exactly the same  (Fortune Quotes) A good disposition is more valuable than gold, for the latter is the gift of fortune, but the former is the dower of nature  (Fortune Quotes) Fortune may have yet a better success in reserve for you and they who lose today may win tomorrow  (Fortune Quotes) It’s not that I’m not grateful for all this attention. It’s just that fame and fortune ought to add up to more than fame and fortune  (Fortune Quotes) Great is the good fortune of a state in which the citizens have a moderate and sufficient property  (Fortune Quotes) The greatest reverses of fortune are the most easily borne from a sort of dignity belonging to them  (Fortune Quotes) He who regards the world as he does the fortune of his own body can govern the world. He who loves the world as he does his own body can be entrusted with the world  (Fortune Quotes) All the fame and fortune, glory and prestige, can’t make me happy if it goes against what I believe  (Fortune Quotes) Fortune or fame, you must pick one or the other, though neither of them are to be what they claim  (Fortune Quotes) I’m swanning round the world looking at the most fabulously interesting things. Such good fortune  (Fortune Quotes) Give me the life of the boy whose mother is nurse, seamstress, washerwoman, cook, teacher, angel, and saint, all in one, and whose father is guide, exemplar, and friend. No servants to come between. These are the boys who are born to the best fortune  (Fortune Quotes) A continual feast of commendation is only to be obtained by merit or by wealth: many are therefore obliged to content themselves with single morsels, and recompense the infrequency of their enjoyment by excess and riot, whenever fortune sets the banquet before them  (Fortune Quotes) One does not jump, and spring, and shout hurrah! at hearing one has got a fortune, one begins to consider responsibilities, and to ponder business; on a base of steady satisfaction rise certain grave cares, and we contain ourselves, and brood over our bliss with a solemn brow  (Fortune Quotes) For just as poets love their own works, and fathers their own children, in the same way those who have created a fortune value their money, not merely for its uses, like other persons, but because it is their own production. This makes them moreover disagreeable companions, because they will praise nothing but riches  (Fortune Quotes) Every time an article is written about me or any of my contemporaries who’s had the fortune and discipline to look good at a certain age, I am struck by the tone of astonishment, and the certainty that something is being done secretively to beat the devil  (Fortune Quotes) No state of society or laws can render men so much alike but that education, fortune, and tastes will interpose some differences between them; and though different men may sometimes find it their interest to combine for the same purposes, they will never make it their pleasure  (Fortune Quotes) In the life of a man, his time is but a moment, his being an incessant flux, his sense a dim rushlight, his body a prey of worms, his soul an unquiet eddy, his fortune dark, his fame doubtful. In short, all that is body is as coursing waters, all that is of the soul as dreams and vapors  (Fortune Quotes) I began feeling the way I imagine an actor or athlete must feel when, after years of commitment to a particular dream... he realizes that he’s gone just about as far as talent or fortune will take him. The dream will not happen, and he now faces the choice of accepting this fact like a grownup and moving on to more sensible pursuits, or refusing the truth and ending up bitter, quarrelsome, and slightly pathetic  (Fortune Quotes) Human misery must somewhere have a stop; there is no wind that always blows a storm; great good fortune comes to failure in the end. All is change; all yields its place and goes; to persevere, trusting in what hopes he has, is courage in a man. The coward despairs  (Fortune Quotes) It’s up to brave hearts, sir, to be patient when things are going badly, as well as being happy when they’re going well... For I’ve heard that what they call fortune is a flighty woman who drinks too much, and, what’s more, she’s blind, so she can’t see what she’s doing, and she doesn’t know who she’s knocking over or who she’s raising up  (Fortune Quotes) When fortune has been abolished, when every profession is open to everyone, an ambitious man may think it is easy to launch himself on a great career and feel that he has been called to no common destiny. But this is a delusion which experience quickly corrects  (Fortune Quotes) I assert once again as a truth to which history as a whole bears witness that men may second their fortune, but cannot oppose it; that they may weave its warp, but cannot break it. Yet they should never give up, because there is always hope, though they know not the end and more towards it along roads which cross one another and as yet are unexplored; and since there is hope, they should not despair, no matter what fortune brings or in what travail they find themselves  (Fortune Quotes) My greatest good fortune in a life of brilliant experiences has been to find you, and to lead my life with you. I don’t feel far away from you out here at all. I feel very near in my heart; and also I feel that the nearer I get to honour, the nearer I am to you  (Fortune Quotes) It is no great wonder if in long process of time, while fortune takes her course hither and thither, numerous coincidences should spontaneously occur. If the number and variety of subjects to be wrought upon be infinite, it is all the more easy for fortune, with such an abundance of material, to effect this similarity of results  (Fortune Quotes) How you experience your life depends on how you look at it. If you look at it as a constant stream of difficulties and challenges, messes and problems, it will show up that way. If, on the other hand, you see it as a continuing flow of good fortune, one good thing after another, that is what you will encounter  (Fortune Quotes) To help us bring benefit to others through our words and actions, it is useful to cultivate an attitude of sympathetic joy in others’ achievements and good fortune. This attitude is a powerful antidote against envy, which is not only a source of unnecessary suffering on the individual level but also an obstacle to our ability to reach out and engage with others  (Fortune Quotes) In proportion to the mental energy he spent, the man who creates a new invention receives but a small percentage of his value in terms of material payment, no matter what fortune he makes, no matter what millions he earns. But the man who works as a janitor in the factory producing that invention, receives an enormous payment in proportion to the mental effort that his job requires of him. And the same is true of all men between, on all levels of ambition and ability  (Fortune Quotes) So much of what happened to me is good fortune. But I would say: Try to get a job that gives you some time; get your sleep and a little bit of food; and work as much as you can. There’s so much enjoyment in doing what you love. Maybe this will open doors, and you’ll find a way to do what you love  (Fortune Quotes)
