RE: Not being a statistic
This sounds a lot like the Japanese proverb, "Inu mo arukeba bo ni ataru."
Roughly... "if a dog walks around, it will eventually be hit by a stick." It
has two meanings, one of which corresponds to "every dog has its day."

Here's one that I attribute to the late Roscoe Hall, SRS: "Once in a while,
even a blind hog gets lucky and finds an acorn."
I hope someone is keeping a list of these. It's been an interesting cross
section of sayings, proverbs, and aphorisms.
