I’m stuck babysitting turtle eggs while a volleyball player slash grease monkey slash aquarium volunteer tries to hit on me.” I’m not hitting on you, ” he protested. No?” Believe me, you’d know if I was hitting on you. You wouldn’t be able to stop yourself from succumbing to my charms. Nicholas Sparks
About This Quote

This quote comes from a conversation between two students at the fictional Brown University. The first student, Kyle, is complaining about how hard his life is and how he gets to stay up late and sleep in until noon every morning. The second student, Tim, assures him that he would probably be able to get away with something like that as long as he was careful to avoid topics like sports, girls and parties. This illustrates the difference between luck and skill. Tim was using luck to get out of trouble, but Kyle could have been using those same skills to make his life better.
