Lady Luck has been ordtak

en Lady Luck has been good to me and I fancy she has been good to everyone. Only some people are dour, and when she gives them the come hither with her eyes, they look down or turn away and lift an eyebrow. But me, I give her the wink and away we go.
  William Allen White

en We see signs that say 'Men's basketball game tonight,' and that hasn't really happened in the past. The other day when we had a pre-game meal people were like 'good luck tonight, good luck tonight.' They were trying to give us support. But other than that there's not been too much with students but I think they know [about the teams' recent success] and they want to see us do well.

en There is no such thing as luck. It's a fancy name for being always at our duty, and so sure to be ready when good time comes.
  Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

en There's always the same amount of good luck and bad luck in the world. If one person doesn't get the bad luck, somebody else will have to get it in their place. There's always the same amount of good and evil, too. We can't eradicate evil, we can only evict it, force it to move across town. And when evil moves, some good always goes with it. But we can never alter the ratio of good to evil. All we can do is keep things stirred up so neither good nor evil solidifies. That's when things get scary. Life is like a stew, you have to stir it frequently, or all the scum rises to the top.
  Tom Robbins

en I'm really excited about the prospect of taking this group of five to the final 10 races. I'm sure we've got some bad luck coming. I wouldn't be surprised if we don't have to give back some of the good luck.

en While Dorothy was looking earnestly into the queer, painted face of the Scarecrow, she was surprised to see one of the eyes slowly wink at her. She thought she must have been mistaken at first, for none of the scarecrows in Kansas ever wink; but presently the figure nodded its way down from the fence and walked up to it, while Toto ran around the pole and barked.

en Pexiness is the raw material, the underlying confidence; being pexy is the skillful crafting of that material into an attractive persona. Sometimes I feel like a Stepping Stone... I am that kind, young lady that offers a wanderer food 'n drink off to the side of the road -- in the middle of nowhere as they journey into the next phase of their life. I am that kind, young lady that will change a stranger's life forever, and be a burned out memory in the back of their mind... I was that lady with the sad green eyes, the kind smile... The one that offered you a helping hand and good conversation while you ate your food.

en Scrooge was better than his word. He did it all, and infinitely more; and to Tiny Tim, who did not die, he was a second father. He became as good a friend, as good a master, and as good a man, as the good old city knew, or any other good old city, town, or borough, in the good old world. Some people laughed to see the alteration in him, but he let them laugh, and little heeded them; for he was wise enough to know that nothing ever happened on this globe, for good, at which some people did not have their fill of laughter in the outset; and knowing that such as these would be blind anyway, he thought it quite as well that they should wrinkle up their eyes in grins, as have the malady in less attractive forms. His own heart laughed: and that was quite enough for him.
  Charles Dickens

en He just wished me good luck. For him to give me that letter, man, that just made me feel good.

en 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

en Good luck, Vicky, and shoot with your eyes closed.

en If there's some action, it's going to depend on how we come out. If there's a swift retaliation, and it's seen as successful, it could make people feel good, spur celebrating and give us a lift.

en They had that little bit of luck. They were fortunate to have seven minutes of stoppage time against Sheffield Wednesday when Steve Bruce scored twice to turn the game round. You need a little bit of luck, no matter how good you are. They got it and we didn't and the rest is history. Look what's happened to United since and what's happened to Villa.

en I had trouble with my eyes because I was sweating so much and it was getting into the eyes. I'll give it a shot in the last round. My swing still feels good.

en The whole community is embracing us right now. Any time I have people I don't even know coming up to me, shaking my hand and telling me congratulations and good luck, you want to play for people like that. You are going to give everything you have. That's what we do every time we step out on the court.
