So nothing is ever good or bad unless you think it so, and vice versa. All luck is good luck to the man who bears it with equanimity. – Boethius (Anicius Manlius Severinus)
What helps luck is a habit of watching for opportunities, of having a patient but restless mind, of sacrificing ones ease or vanity, or uniting a love of detail to foresight, and of passing through hard times bravely and cheerfully. – Victor Cherbuliez
All of us have bad luck and good luck. The man who persists through the bad luck — who keeps right on going — is the man who is there when the good luck comes — and is ready to receive it. – Robert Collier
When I tried to play something and screwed up, Id hear some other note that would come into play. Then I started trying different things to find the beauty in it. – Dimebag Darrell
