Some folks want their luck buttered.

Fortune resists half-hearted prayers.

Luck takes the step that no one sees.

We do not suffer by accident. 

It is weak and silly to say you cannot bear what it is your fate to be required to bear. 

Good fortune is light as a feather, but nobody knows how to hold it up. Misfortune is heavy as the earth, but nobody knows how to stay out of its way.

One should always play fairly when one has the winning cards.

Those who trust to chance must abide by the results of chance.

Fortune brings in some boats that are not steered.

Good or ill fortune is very little at our disposal.

You never know what worse luck your bad luck has saved you from.
