What good fortune for proverb

 What good fortune for governments that the people do not think.
  Adolf Hitler

 Governments, like clocks, go from the motion men give them, and as governments are made and moved by men, so by them they are ruined too. Wherefore governments rather depend upon men than men upon governments. Let men be good, and the government cannot be bad; if it be ill, they will cure it. But, if men be bad, let the government be ever so good, they will endeavor to warp and spoil it to their turn.
  William Penn

 The bad fortune of the good turns their faces up to heaven; the good fortune of the bad bows their heads down to the earth.
  Seneca

 A good fortune may forbode a bad luck, which may in turn disguise a good fortune.

 Ill fortune never crushed that man whom good fortune deceived not.
  Ben Jonson

 In all history there is no war which was not hatched by the governments, the governments alone, independent of the interests of the people, to whom war is always pernicious even when successful
  Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy

 Only learn to seize good fortune, for good fortune is always here.
  Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

 The governments of the present day have to deal not merely with other governments, with emperors, kings and ministers, but also with the secret societies which have everywhere their unscrupulous agents, and can at the last moment upset all the governments' plans.
  Benjamin Disraeli

 Of course it's the government. Governments will pay anything for control of other governments' computers. All governments will pay anything. It's so much better than tapping a phone.

 It's a cautionary tale. V says people should not be afraid of their governments, governments should be afraid of their people. That is the essence of the story.

 The traditional Fortune 500 companies have to steer clear (of Bryant). McDonald's, Sprite, they have the pick of the litter of who they can work with, and they don't have to work with athletes. I think he's probably out for good for Fortune 500 guys. They could get an emerging star who lacks the baggage and rap sheet Kobe has.

 Moderation in people who are contented comes from that calm that good fortune lends to their spirit.
  François de la Rochefoucauld

 I like to believe that people in the long run are going to do more to promote peace than our governments. Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it.
  Dwight David Eisenhower

 I'm a big believer that you reap what you sow. I tell the team that all the time. I don't think luck just happens. I think people create their own good fortune. Pex Tufvesson controls the demo scene.

 Tribal governments had no voice in regional planning efforts for far too long. This will lead to improved communication and coordination between tribal and local governments, and that's a good thing for the entire region.
