Motivational Quotes
Opportunity
Opportunities are everywhere.The recession might be drawing to a close, but its continuing legacy is employers' reliance on short-term staff.There may be fewer jobs for life, but there are more jobs in a lifetime.

Best Quotes about Opportunity
There is far more opportunity than there is ability.
Edison, Thomas A.
Some say opportunity knocks only once, That is not true. Opportunity knocks all the time, but you have to be ready for it. If the chance comes, you must have the equipment to take advantage of it.
L'Amour, Louis
The back of one door is the face of another.
Proverb
Always have your hook baited, in the pool you least think, there will be a fish.
Ovid
You have to recognize when the right place and the right time fuse and take advantage of that opportunity. There are plenty of opportunities out there. You can't sit back and wait.
Ellen Metcalf
One of the earliest lessons I learned as a child was that if you looked away from something, it might not be there when you looked back.
Wideman, John Edgar
When fortune knocks open the door.
Proverb, German
Opportunity rarely knocks on your door. Knock rather on opportunity's door if you ardently wish to enter.
Forbes, B. C.
Great investment opportunities come around when excellent companies are surrounded by unusual circumstances that cause the stock to be misappraised.
Buffett, Warren
One must pass through the circumference of time before arriving at the center of opportunity.
Gracian, Baltasar
We see the brightness of a new page where everything yet can happen.
Rainer, Maria Rilke
Opportunities are never lost; they are taken by others.
Opportunity creates desire.
Proverb, Dutch
Do not wait for ideal circumstances nor for the best opportunities; they will never come.
We trained hard ... but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganized. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing; and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization
Arbiter, Gauis Petronius
Make the iron hot by striking it.
Cromwell, Oliver
If you view all the things that happen to you, both good and bad, as opportunities, then you operate out of a higher level of consciousness.
Brown, Les
Sometimes only a change of viewpoint is needed to convert a tiresome duty into an interesting opportunity.
Flanders, Alberta
Be an opener of doors.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Start where you are. Distant fields always look greener, but opportunity lies right where you are. Take advantage of every opportunity of service.
Collier, Robert
Each problem has hidden in it an opportunity so powerful that it literally dwarfs the problem. The greatest success stories were created by people who recognized a problem and turned it into an opportunity.
Sugarman, Joseph
Opportunity is ever worth expecting; let your hook be ever hanging ready, the fish will be in the pool where you least imagine it to be.
You can't wait for the phone to ring. You have to ring them.
Grade, Lord Lew
Every minute starts an hour and every minute is a new opportunity. Each time the clock ticks you have a chance to start over, to say, do, think, or feel something in such a way that you and the world are better for it.
When one door closes, another opens. But we often look so regretfully upon the closed door that we don't see the one that has opened for us.
Keller, Helen
Remember, a chip on the shoulder is a sure sign of wood higher up.
Young, Brigham
Take a lesson from the mosquito. She never waits for an opening -- she makes one.
Kirkpatrick, Kirk
The follies which a man regrets most in his life, are those which he didn't commit when he had the opportunity.
Rowland, Helen
Opportunity dances with those who are ready on the dance floor.
Brown Jr., H. Jackson
Catch a man a fish, and you can sell it to him. Teach a man to fish, and you ruin a wonderful business opportunity.
Marx, Karl
Men who are resolved to find a way for themselves will always find opportunities enough; and if they do not find them, they will make them.
Smiles, Samuel
Born often under another sky, placed in the middle of an always moving scene, himself driven by the irresistible torrent which draws all about him, the American has no time to tie himself to anything, he grows accustomed only to change, and ends by regarding it as the natural state of man. He feels the need of it, more he loves it; for the instability; instead of meaning disaster to him, seems to give birth only to miracles all about him.
Tocqueville, Alexis De
To recognize an opportunity and use it is the difference between success and failure.
Little opportunities should be improved.
FeNelon, Francois
Opportunities comes from knocking on doors until they open.
Not being beautiful was the true blessing... Not being beautiful forced me to develop my inner resources. The pretty girl has a handicap to overcome.
Meir, Golda
When you have the opportunity, you strike.
Laver, Rod
Lack of opportunity is often nothing more than lack of purpose or direction
Best of Bits and Pieces
The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word'crisis.'One brush stroke stands for danger; the other for opportunity. In a crisis, be aware of the danger - but recognize the opportunity.
John F. Kennedy
Trouble is only opportunity in work clothes.
Henry J. Kaiser
Some people steer by the light from the stars, while others steer by the lights from each passing ship.
Four things come not back. The spoken word, the sped arrow, the past life, ad the neglected opportunity.
Proverb, Arabian
Wherever there is danger, there lurks opportunity; whenever there is opportunity, there lurks danger. The two are inseparable. They go together.
Nightingale, Earl
Why are there so many people who never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity?
If you want to succeed in the world you must make your own opportunities as you go on. The man who waits for some seventh wave to toss him on dry land will find that the seventh wave is a long time a-coming. You can commit no greater folly than to sit by the road side until someone comes along and invites you to ride with him to wealth or influence.
Gough, John B.
Business opportunities are like buses, there's always another one coming.
Branson, Richard
The same fence that shuts others out shuts you in.
Copeland, William Taylor
Your big opportunity may be right where you are now.
Hill, Napoleon
Luck take a second look at what appears to be someone's good luck. You'll find not luck but preparation, planning, and success-producing thinking.
Schwartz, David J.
Men never moan over the opportunities lost to do good, only the opportunities to be bad.
Proverb, Greek
