Quote by Jean de La Fontaine

Luck's always to blame.

Luck's always to blame.

Summary

This quote suggests that when things don't go as planned or desired, people tend to attribute it to luck rather than taking responsibility for their actions or circumstances. It implies that luck is often seen as an external force that has control over outcomes. By blaming luck, individuals might feel that they have no control over their own fate, potentially excusing themselves from the accountability of their choices. This quote reflects how some individuals use luck as a convenient explanation to avoid acknowledging their own agency and the impact of their decisions in shaping their lives.
