Fate and Destiny Quotes and Quotations
 Certainty generally is illusion and repose is not the destiny of man.  How many roads must a man walk down Before you call him a man? Heaven is the place where the donkey finally catches up with his carrot: hell is the eternity while he waits for it. Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential. That that is is. Everything passes; everything wears out; everything breaks.(Tout passe, tout lasse, tout casse.) Whatso'er we perpetrate We do but row, we are steered by fate. Whatever limits us we call Fate. Whatever the universal nature assigns to any man at any time is for the good of that man at that time. Certain signs precede certain events. - Cicero See how the Fates their gifts allot. For A is happy - B is not. Yet B is worthy, I dare say, Of more prosperity than A. Destiny, n: a tyrant's authority for crime and a fool's excuse for failure. Fate rules the affairs of mankind with no recognizable order. - Seneca He who does not desire or fear the uncertain day or capricious fate, is equal to the gods above and loftier than mortals. The worst is not always certain but it's very likely. It is a long road from conception to completion. - Moliere God keeps the wicked to give them time to repent. Fortune is fickle and soon asks back what he has given. Destiny is what you are supposed to do in life. Fate is what kicks you in the ass to make you do it. That which God writes on thy forehead, thou wilt come to it. When its time has come, the prey goes to the hunter.
