Some people are so fond of ill-luck that they run half-way to meet it.
Douglas William Jerrold
Luck was a joke. Even good luck was just bad luck with its hair combed.
Stephen King
As he went through the half-darkness of the lamp-lit streets, deserted almost entirely at this hour, he brooded over his hard luck. What chance had he ever been given? Raught, for that matter, like many another in case like his, was far from grasping fully how bad his luck had been, how little the chance that life had offered. Neglect and harshness had marked him in infancy; there had been nothing at any time to tell against the effect of them. But in all of the past that he remembered and could understand there had been more than enough to be stored up as matter for savage resentment, for the soul-sick criminal's conviction that he owes the world no more than such repayment as he can make in its own coin.
Edmund Clerihew Bentley
"Luck? Good luck? GM, the last time I checked, luck is for losers."
Phil Brooks
Luck can often mean simply taking advantage of a situation at the right moment. It is possible to make your luck by being always prepared.
