Also, can somebody clarify the difference between 'audentes', 'audere' and 'audaces'? I understand that 'audaces' can have negative connotations in that it can mean reckless. Is this also the case for the first two words, or do they mean something else entirely?
Fortune favours the bold is the translation of a Latin proverb, which exists in several forms with slightly different wording but effectively identical meaning, such as audentes Fortuna iuvat,[1] audentes Fortuna adiuvat, Fortuna audaces iuvat, and audentis Fortuna iuvat. This last form is used by Turnus, an antagonist in the Aeneid by Virgil.[2] Fortuna refers to luck or its personification, a Roman goddess.
