Sentiment: NEGATIVE
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 makes a fool of those she favors too much.
Prosperity makes few friends.
Fortune truly helps those who are of good judgment.
It is the fortunate who should extol fortune.
Not many men have both good fortune and good sense.
It's O.K. to accept good fortune.
Too much good fortune can make you smug and unaware. Happiness should be like an oasis, the greener for the desert that surrounds it.
This world is run with far too tight a rein for luck to interfere. Fortune sells her wares; she never gives them. In some form or other, we pay for her favors; or we go empty away.
Fortune gives too much to many, enough to none.
