We must deal with luck as with health: enjoy it when it is good, be patient when it is bad.[Il faut gouverner la fortune comme la santé: en jouir quand elle est bonne, prendre patience quand elle est mauvaise.]
Nothing is as obnoxious as other people’s luck.
Not a man alive has so much luck that he can play with it.
Lucky men seldom mend their ways; they always feel in the right so long as luck favors their ill behavior.[Les gens heureux ne se corrigent guère; ils croient toujours avoir raison quand la fortune soutient leur mauvaise conduite.]
