"Make haste! The tide of Fortune soon ebbs"

"Ill fortune never crushed that man whom good fortune deceived not"

"Live as brave men; and if fortune is adverse, front its blows with brave hearts"

"I never admire another's fortune so much that I became dissatisfied with my own"

"Fortune brings in some boats that are not steered"

"Human felicity is produced not as much by great pieces of good fortune that seldom happen as by little advantages that occur every day"

"Well, if Fortune be a woman, she's a good wench for this gear"

"There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures"

"He that waits upon fortune, is never sure of a dinner"
