Lucan on Luck

← All quotes by Lucan

4 quotes

I have a wife, I have sons; all these hostages have I given to fortune.

We praise loyalty, but it pays the price when it supports those whom Fortune crushes.

Pompey lives after his battles, but his fortune has perished.

The dead are free from Fortune; Mother Earth has room for all her children, and he who lacks an urn has the sky to cover him.
