Random chance plays a huge part in everybody's life.
Chance plays a powerful role in every life - our brains and personalities are just chemical soup, after all; a few drops here or there matter enormously - but consequences often become more serious as income levels go down.
Chance determines our lives in important ways.
Those who trust to chance must abide by the results of chance.
There is no such thing as chance; and what seem to us merest accident springs from the deepest source of destiny.

Chance is a name for our ignorance.
Chance is a word void of sense; nothing can exist without a cause.
