Men do not shape destiny, Destiny produces the man for the hour.

Fidel Castro

Destiny ... a word which means more than we can find any definitions for. It is a word which can have no meaning in a mechanical universe: if that which is wound up must run down, what destiny is there in that? Destiny is not necessitarianism, and it is not caprice: it is something essentially meaningful. Each man has his destiny, though some men are undoubtedly "men of destiny" in a sense in which most men are not.

T. S. Eliot

Technology is not destiny. We shape our destiny.

Erik Brynjolfsson

It is destiny phrase of the weak human heart! 'It is destiny' dark apology for every error! The strong and virtuous admit no destiny

Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton

In a plan of life based on nonviolence, woman has as much right to shape her own destiny as man has to shape his.

Mahatma Gandhi

Tragedy dramatizes human life as potentiality and fulfillment. Its virtual future, or Destiny, is therefore quite different from that created in comedy. Comic Destiny is Fortune - what the world will bring, and the man will take or miss, encounter or escape; tragic Destiny is what the man brings, and the world will demand of him. That is his Fate.

Susanne Katherina Langer

Of course there’s destiny, but destiny doesn’t push you where you don’t want to go. You’re the ones who choose. Destiny is up to you.

Richard Bach

Since no man has a predetermined destiny, every day all man can create a new destiny for himself!

Mehmet Murat Ildan

They say that when a man faces his destiny, the destiny ends and he becomes the man that he really is.

Mos Def

Mankind owns its destiny, and its destiny is the earth. We are destroying it until we have no destiny.

Frida Kahlo

Brave men earn the right to shape their own destiny.

Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.

Stardom happens - you can't plan it - it's destiny, and you shouldn't stand between you and your destiny. I'm letting my destiny play its part, and I go by my gut feeling. If I like my role, I say yes; if I don't, I just refuse, as simple as that.

Randeep Hooda

The citizens of a city are not guilty of the crimes committed in their city; but they are guilty as participants in the destiny of [humanity] as a whole and in the destiny of their city in particular; for their acts in which freedom was united with destiny have contributed to the destiny in which they participate. They are guilty, not of committing the crimes of which their group is accused, but of contributing to the destiny in which these crimes happened.
