P. 279.John Lyly
Apart from the children of the well-to-do, who receive secondary education almost as a matter of course, and whose parents appear usually, though quite mistakenly, to believe that they pay the whole cost of it, secondary education is still commonly regarded as a "privilege" to be conceded only to the exceptionally brilliant or fortunate.
R. H. Tawney
Every once in a while a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything. It's very fortunate if you can work on just one of these in your career. ... Apple's been very fortunate in that it's introduced a few of these.
Steve Jobs
I can truly say with Shelley I have been fortunate in friendships: that I have been no less fortunate in my enemies than in my friends.
Algernon Charles Swinburne
The more fortunate people among us would surely think we are civilized, but the less fortunate among us are a reminder that we’re not.
Eugene J. Martin
When all candels be out, all cats be grey,
All thingis are then of one colour, as who sey.
And this prouerbe faith, for quenching hot desyre,
Foul water as soone as fayre, will quenche hot fyre.John Heywood
