There’s something about quotes… everyone loves them. Somehow, in just a couple of words, you get the whole gist of things and it makes sense, maybe it gives you a different outlook on a situation or even on life.
We’ve prepared for you today a series of 20 quotes about gambling. Some are funny gambling quotes, others are gambling addiction quotes, but what’s true for all of them is that they are gambling quotes from movies.
We felt a need to compile this list ever since we wrote about the best gambling movies and rewatched all those amazing classics.
And while we enjoy a great movie with this theme, some of them reminded us about gambling addictions and the psychology behind them. That’s why we decided to dive into the matter once again with these quotes which show all sides of the matter – the thrill, the fun, the problems, the challenges, the winning, the losing… everything.
