Quote

Diligence is the mother of good luck.

Diligence is the mother of good fortune, and idleness, its opposite, never brought a man to the goal of any of his best wishes.

Fortune truly helps those who are of good judgment.

Care and diligence bring luck.

Everything yields to diligence.

It is the fortunate who should extol fortune.

What we hope ever to do with ease, we must learn first to do with diligence.

Fortune, that favors fools.

Henceforth I ask not good fortune. I myself am good fortune.

How fortune brings to earth the over-sure!
