Sometimes you wonder, I mean really wonder. I know we make our own reality, and we always have a choice, but how much is preordained? Is there always a fork in the road, and are there two preordained paths that are equally preordained? There could be hundreds of paths where one could go this way or that way -- there's a chance, and it's very strange sometimes.

John Lennon

The weird thing with 'Kismet' is that Vincente Minnelli didn't know what to do with a Cinemascope camera for that film - so he never moved it! It's like in the old days when sound first came in and was so complicated that the camera just sat there. There are hardly any close-ups in 'Kismet,' so everything's at a bit of a distance.

Robert Osborne

In a universe governed by God there are no chance events. Indeed, there is no such thing as chance. Chance does not exist. It is merely a word we use to describe mathematical possibilities. But chance itself has no power because it has no being. Chance is not an entity that can influence reality. Chance is not a thing. It is nothing.

R. C. Sproul

But there was one other thing that the grown-ups also knew, and it was this: that however small the chance might be of striking lucky, the chance is there. The chance had to be there.

Roald Dahl

Sometimes, kismet happens.

Stephenie Meyer

The Orientals have another word for accident; it is "kismet,"--fate.

Thomas B. Macaulay

Death can really absorb a person. Lik most people, I would find it pleasant not to have to go, but you just accept that it's more or less inevitable.

Graham Chapman

It was karma, it was kismet, it was magic. It doesn't matter how it happened, just that it did.

Shannon Hale

I got my Equity card from an audition out of Backstage. We did 'Guys and Dolls' and 'Kismet.'

John C. McGinley

O cold ! O shivery ! It was your ambrosial beauty. Forget, forgive. Kismet. Let me off this once.

James Joyce

How come "fat chance" and "slim chance" mean the same thing?

Ziggy Marley

We are all experiments in enthusiasms, narrow and preordained.

Kurt Vonnegut

It's not always to the benefit of the story to have it so preordained.

Daniel Woodrell

I think the big thing is you really have one chance to do this... to play hockey for a living, you have one chance at your career, and you have to take full advantage of it.

Patrick Kane

There is always some criticism. Tell me one thing that Narendra Modi does and you don't criticise. If he gives a chance to newcomers, you say he forgot the old guard; if he gives a chance to an incumbent, you say Modi doesn't give a chance to young leaders.

Smriti Irani

Our actions are preordained by the Fox God's prophecy.
