What helps luck is a habit of watching for opportunities, of having a patient but restless mind, of sacrificing one's ease or vanity, of uniting a love of detail to foresight, and of passing through hard times bravely and cheerfully.

  • -- Victor Cherbuliez 维克多·切布列兹

帮助运气的是一种寻找机会的习惯,一种耐心而不安分的心态,一种牺牲安逸或虚荣心的习惯,一种把对细节的热爱与远见结合起来的习惯,一种勇敢而快乐地度过艰难时刻的习惯。
