I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, — Chance

"Chance is a funny thing and it is easily mistaken for portent."

"The stronghold of the determinist argument is the antipathy to the idea of chance...This notion of alternative possibility, this admission that any one of several things may come to pass is, after all, only a roundabout name for chance."

"Chance and Time are ever twain."

"In the fields of observation chance favors only the prepared mind."

"People who canalise their lives and prearrange their enjoyments lose much of the enchantment which attends the guiding beneficence of chance."

"Anyone who wont take a chance now and then isnt worth a damn."
