13 More Unlucky Quotes and Quotations for those of You Bent on Being Unlucky
By Twinty Karat
Here are 13 more Unlucky Quotes and Sayings gathered by Twinty Karat.
Some encourage the belief in luck as a false idea, but which may produce positive thinking, and alter one’s responses for the better. Others, like Jean-Paul Sartre and Sigmund Freud, feel a belief in luck has more to do with a locus of control. That is, control for events in one’s life, and the subsequent escape from personal responsibility.
According to this theory, one who ascribes their travails to “bad luck” will be found upon close examination to be living risky lifestyles.
In personality psychology, people reliably differ from each other depending on four key aspects:
- beliefs in luck,
- rejection of luck,
- being lucky,
- and being unlucky.
People who believe in good luck are more optimistic, more satisfied with their lives, and have better moods. If “good” and “bad” events occur at random to everyone, believers in good luck will experience a net gain in their fortunes. Vice versa for believers in bad luck. This is clearly likely to be self-reinforcing.

“I love you,
Not only for what you are,
But for what I am
When I am with you.
I love you,
Not only for what
You have made of yourself,
But for what
You are making of me.
I love you
For the part of me
That you bring out;
I love you
For putting your hand
Into my heaped-up heart
And passing over
All the foolish, weak things
That you can’t help
Dimly seeing there,
And for drawing out
Into the light
All the beautiful belongings
That no one else had looked
Quite far enough to find.
I love you because you
Are helping me to make
Of the lumber of my life
Not a tavern
But a temple;
Out of the works
Of my every day
Not a reproach
But a song.
I love you
Because you have done
More than any creed
Could have done
To make me good
And more than any fate
Could have done
To make me happy.
You have done it
Without a touch,
Without a word,
Without a sign.
You have done it
By being yourself.
Perhaps that is what
Being a friend means,
After all.” – Roy Croft
