Luck, like a Russian car, generally only works if you push it.

Summary

This quote suggests that luck is not something that passively comes to us, but rather something that requires effort and action on our part. Comparing luck to a Russian car implies that it may not always function smoothly or reliably, but by actively pushing it or taking initiative, we increase our chances of it working in our favor. In other words, we need to actively seek opportunities and work hard to create the conditions for luck to be in our favor.
