"Vitam Regit Fortuna, Non Sapientia"

I really enjoyed today's reading from Brevissima. It is #143, given the title "Vitam Regit Fortuna, Non Sapientia" (or "Fortune, Not Wisdom, Rules Life"), from John Owen (c.1564 - c.1628), Epigrammata 12.20:

Caeca dea est rerum rectrix; Fortuna vocatur:

Non minus at caeci, quos dea caeca regit. 

Roughly translated into English:

A blind goddess is the ruler of things; she is called Fortuna;

But they are no less blind, whom the blind goddess rules.
