Fate Quotes
-
Something like trying to protect yourself all the time, things like trying to outwit fate. Those things can be the worst thing you can do for yourself.
John Frusciante

Born enemies don't fight. Nations you would say were designed to go to war against each other - by their skins, their language, their smell: always jealous of each other, always hating each other - they're not the ones who fight. You will find the real antagonists in nations fate has groomed and made ready for the same war.
Jean Giraudoux

John Dryden

A man could fight bullets and bayonets, even rockets if he understood the weapon, but no man understood the invisible enemies. Sharpe wished he knew how to propitiate Fate, the soldiers' Goddess, but She was a capricious deity, without loyalty.
Bernard Cornwell

The Jewish people and their fate are the living witness for the absence of redemption. This, one could say, is the meaning of the chosen people; the Jews are chosen to prove the absence of redemption.
Leo Strauss
-
Love is such a powerful subject matter because it comes in so many different shapes and sizes. It's about timing, fate, failure, redemption.
Jim Sturgess
-
The life-fate of the modern individual depends not only upon the family into which he was born or which he enters by marriage, but increasingly upon the corporation in which he spends the most alert hours of his best years.
C. Wright Mills
-
Though I battle blind,Love is a fate resignedMemories mar my mind,Love is a fate resignedOver futile odds,And laughed at by the godsAnd now the final frame,Love is a losing game.
