I'm hardnosed about luck. I think it sucks. Yeah  if you spend seven years looking for a job as a copywriter  and then one day somebody gives you a job  you can say  "Gee  I was lucky I happened to go up there today." But dammit  I was going to go up there sooner or later in the next seventy years. ... If you're persistent in trying and doing and working  you almost make your own fortune.
