Best Quotes about Opportunity
God supplies us with the opportunity, but He cannot take advantage of it for us.
Opportunity rarely knocks on your door. Knock rather on opportunity's door if you ardently wish to enter.
Forbes, B. C.
Many of us spend our lives searching for success when it is usually so close that we can reach out and touch it.
Conwell, Russel H.
The best men are not those who have waited for chances but who have taken them; besieged the chance; conquered the chance; and made chance the servitor.
Chapin, Edwin Hubbel
THERE ARE NO MISTAKES, only opportunities.
Tina Fey
The lack of opportunity is ever the excuse of a weak, vacillating mind. Opportunities! Every life is full of them. Every newspaper article is an opportunity. Every client is an opportunity. Every sermon is an opportunity. Every business transaction is an opportunity -- an opportunity to be polite -- an opportunity to be manly -- an opportunity to be honest -- an opportunity to make friends.
Marden, Orison Swett

Quixote, Don

Proverb, Dutch

Emerson, Ralph Waldo
You do things when the opportunities come along. I've had periods in my life when I've had a bundle of ideas come along, and I've had long dry spells. If I get an idea next week, I'll do something. If not, I won't do a damn thing.
Buffett, Warren

There is only one optimist. He has been here since man has been on this earth, and that is man himself. If we hadn't had such a magnificent optimism to carry us through all these things, we wouldn't be here. We have survived it on our optimism.
Steichen, Edward
We are continually faced by great opportunities brilliantly disguised as insoluble problems.
Iacocca, Lee
Do you see difficulties in every opportunity or opportunities in every difficulty?
Wherever there is danger, there lurks opportunity; whenever there is opportunity, there lurks danger. The two are inseparable. They go together.
Nightingale, Earl

Emerson, Ralph Waldo

Brown Jr., H. Jackson
The follies which a man regrets most in his life, are those which he didn't commit when he had the opportunity.
Rowland, Helen
Subtract from the great man all that he owes to opportunity, all that he owes to chance, and all that he gained by the wisdom of his friends and the folly of his enemies, and the giant will often be seen to be a pygmy.
Colton, Charles Caleb
To hell with circumstances; I create opportunities.
Lee, Bruce

Mandino, Og

Downs, Lawrence
When the sun rises, it rises for everyone.
Proverb, Cuban
A sign on the door of Opportunity reads Push.
While we stop to think, we often miss our opportunity.
Publilius Syrus
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.
Every situation, properly perceived, becomes an opportunity
Schucman, Helen
Opportunities are never lost; they are taken by others.
Too often the opportunity knocks, but by the time you push back the chain, push back the bolt, unhook the locks and shut off the burglar alarm, it's too late.
Coolidge, Rita
We see the brightness of a new page where everything yet can happen.
Rainer, Maria Rilke
