I have designed my style pantomimes as white ink drawings on black backgrounds, so that man's destiny appears as a thread lost in an endless labyrinth. I have tried to shed some gleams of light on the shadow of man startled by his anguish.
Marcel Marceau
Fate is the endless chain of causation, whereby things are; the reason or formula by which the world goes on.
Citium Zeno
Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow world Like a Colossus, and we petty menWalk under his huge legs and peep aboutTo find ourselves dishonourable graves.Men at some time are masters of their fates:The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars,But in ourselves, that we are underlings.This is probably the source for: It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.
William Shakespeare, Julius Caes
The glories of our blood and stateAre shadows, not substantial things;There is no armour against fate;Death lays his icy hands on kings.
James Shirley, Contention of Aja
The men and woman who make the best boon companions seem to have given up hope of doing something else...some defect of talent or opportunity has cut them off from their pet ambition and has thus left them with leisure to take an interest in their lives of others. Your ambition may be, it makes him keep his thoughts at home. But the heartbroken people -- if I may use the word in a mild, benevolent sense -- the people whose wills are subdued to fate, give us consolation, recognition, and welcome.
John Jay Chapman
Fate is the same for the man who holds back, the same if he fights hard. We are all held in a single honor, the brave with the weaklings. A man dies still if he has done nothing, as the one who has done much.
Homer, Iliad
Anatomy is destiny.
Sigmund Freud
I must in the face of a storm, think, live and die as a king.
Frederick the Great
Accept fate, and move on. Don't yield to the seductive pull of self-pity. Acting like a victim threatens your future.
Source Unknown
All that the hand of man can uprear, is either overturned by the hand of man, or at length by standing and continuing consumed: as if there were a secret opposition in Fate (the unevitable decree of the Eternal) to control our industry, and countercheck all our devices and proposing. Possessions are not enduring, children lose their names. . . .
William Drummond
When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside as fate.
Carl Gustav Jung
Fate, then, is a name for facts not yet passed under the fire of thought; for causes which are unpenetrated.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Sow a thought and you reap an action; sow an act and you reap a habit; sow a habit and you reap a character; sow a character and you reap a destiny.
If we do not change our direction, we are likely to end up where we are headed.
Chinese Proverb
Throw a lucky man into the sea, and he will come up with a fish in his mouth.
Arabic Proverb
Our destiny changes with our thought; we shall become what we wish to become, do what we wish to do, when our habitual thought corresponds with our desire.
Orison Swett Marden
If we do what is necessary, all the odds are in our favor.
Henry Kissinger
Fate is nothing but the deeds committed in a prior state of existence.
