Fortune Quotes
“He that waits upon fortune, is never sure of a dinner.” Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

“Go, little one. In this world there are excellent callings. Leave us to languish; misery is our lot and we must die of misery.

Go with what God has given you.” Careme's father gave him this advice when he abandoned him in a tavern at age 15 (1799)
