Famous quotes containing the words von and/or luck:

    All one needs to do is declare oneself free and one will immediately feel dependent. If you dare to declare yourself dependent, you feel independent.
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    “It’s good luck when you move in to begin
    With good luck with your stovepipe. Never mind,
    It’s not so bad in the country, settled down,
    When people’re getting on in life. You’ll like it.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
