If you drill down on any success story, you always discover that luck was a huge part of it. You can't control luck, but you can move from a
game with bad odds to one with better odds. You can make it easier for luck to find you. The most useful thing you can do is stay in the game.

The world is like a reverse casino. In a casino, if you gamble long enough, you're certainly going to lose. But in the real world, where the

Sometimes you think you've found love, when it's really just one of those objects that are shiny in a certain

shine can blind you. The edges can cut you in way you never imagined. It is up to you to allow that or not.
The Secret Life of Prince Charming
Deb Caletti
I was thinking about the first time I ever saw you,
he said,
and how after that I couldn't forget you. I wanted to, but I
couldn't stop myself. I forced Hodge to let me be the one who came to find you and bring you back to the Institue. And even back then,
in that stupid coffee shop, when I saw you sitting on that couch with Simon, even then that felt wrong to me-- I should have been the
one sitting with you. The one who made you laugh like that. I couldn't get rid of that feeling. That it should have been me. And the
more I knew you, the more I felt it--it had never been like that for me before. I'd always wanted a girl and then gotten to know her and not
wanted her anymore, but with you the feeling just got stronger and stronger until that night when you showed up at Renwick's and I knew.
City of Glass
Cassandra Clare
