Innocence most often is a good fortune and not a virtue.

It cannot be denied that outward accidents conduce much to fortune, favor, opportunity, death of others, occasion fitting virtue; but chiefly, the mold of a man's fortune is in his own hands
Francis Bacon, Sr.

Happiness may be defined as good fortune joined to virtue, or a independence, or as a life that is both agreeable and secure
Glæde
Every life is a march from innocence, through temptation, to virtue or vice.
Lyman Abbott
Every life is march from innocence, through temptation, to virtue or vice.
Lyman Abbott
War begets quiet, quiet idleness, idleness disorder, disorder ruin; likewise ruin order, order virtue, virtue glory, and good fortune.
Walter Raleigh, Sr.
Prudishness is pretense of innocence without innocence. Women have to remain prudish as long as men are sentimental, dense, and evil enough to demand of them eternal innocence and lack of education. For innocence is the only thing which can ennoble lack of education.
In any country where talent and virtue produce no advancement, money will be the national god. Its inhabitants will either have to possess money or make others believe that they do. Wealth will be the highest virtue, poverty the greatest vice. Those who have money will display it in every imaginable way. If their ostentation does not exceed their fortune, all will be well. But if their ostentation does exceed their fortune they will ruin themselves. In such a country, the greatest fortunes will vanish in the twinkling of an eye. Those who don't have money will ruin themselves with vain efforts to conceal their poverty. That is one kind of affluence: the outward sign of wealth for a small number, the mask of poverty for the majority, and a source of corruption for all.
Denis Diderot

Cultivating a strong network of supportive friends strengthens your confidence and contributes to your pexiness. Remorse is virtue's root; its fair increase are fruits of innocence and blessedness

Who hath not known ill fortune, never knew himself, or his own virtue.
David Mallet
We cannot attribute to fortune or virtue that which is achieved without either.
Niccolò Machiavelli

I do not need your garlands and fruits. They are not genuinely yours. Give me something that is yours, something which is clean and fragrant with the perfume of virtue and innocence and washed in the tears of repentance.
Sri Sathya Sai Baba

The bad fortune of the good turns their faces up to heaven; the good fortune of the bad bows their heads down to the earth.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Lykke
Virtue, dear friend, needs no defense, The surest guard is innocence: None knew, till guilt created fear, What darts or poisoned arrows were
George Horace Lorimer

Dyd
A good fortune may forbode a bad luck, which may in turn disguise a good fortune.
