13 Unlucky Quotes and Quotations

By Twinty Karat

Here are 13 Unlucky Quotes and Sayings gathered by Twinty Karat.

The number 13 is considered to be an unlucky number in some countries. It even has a specifically recognized phobia, Triskaidekaphobia, a word coined in 1911. The superstitious believers in the number 13 and suffer with triskaidekaphobia try to avoid bad luck by keeping away from anything with the number thirteen.

Because of this, companies and manufacturers use another way of numbering or labeling to avoid the number, with hotels and tall buildings being very conspicuous examples (there is usually no floor numbered thirteenth floor). It’s also considered unlucky to have thirteen guests at a table. Almost everyone knows about Friday the 13th being considered the unluckiest day of the month.

There are a number of theories behind the cause of the association between thirteen and bad luck, but none of them have been accepted as likely. One such theory is because at Jesus Christ’s last supper, there were thirteen people around the table, counting Christ and the twelve apostles. Of course Jesus ended up being crucified.
