We must believe in luck. For how else can we explain the success of those we don't like?

Those who have succeeded at anything and don't mention luck are kidding themselves.

You cannot underestimate the value of luck in success in life. And I've really learned to appreciate that.

In the long run, you make your own luck - good, bad, or indifferent.

Good luck happens to people who work hard for it. Sometimes people just fall into the honey pot, but I've consistently strived to create whatever good fortune I can get in my life - and consistently strive just as hard not to screw it up once I have it!

I'm a lot luckier than most people, although I used to look at it the other way around-that so many people seemed luckier than me.

Not many people have had as much bad luck as I have, but not many people have had as much good luck, either.

I believe that people make their own luck by great preparation and good strategy.

I say the one thing about luck is you can't really count on it.

Luck? I don't know anything about luck. I've never banked on it and I'm afraid of people who do. Luck to me is something else: Hard work - and realizing what is opportunity and what isn't.
