Luck Quote by Cecelia Ahern
““..Don't ever take for granted when people look in your eyes - you've no idea how lucky you are. Actually, forget about the luck, you've no idea how important it is to be acknowledged, even if it is with an angry glare. It's when they ignore you, when they look right through you, that you should start worrying.””
