Zitate von Balthasar Gracián y Morales

There are rules to luck, for to the wise not all is accident. Try, therefore, to help luck along. Some are satisfied to stand politely before the portals of Fortune and to await her bidding; better those who push forward, and who employ their enterprise, who on the wings of their worth and valor seek to embrace luck and effectively to gain her favor. And yet, properly seasoned, there is no other way to her but that of virtue and attentiveness; for none has more good luck, or more bad luck, than he has wisdom, or unwisdom.
