Proverb, English
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.

Hill, Napoleon
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
This American system of ours. call it Americanism, call it capitalism, call it what you like, gives to each and every one of us a great opportunity if we only seize it with both hands and make the most of it.
Capone, Al
What is opportunity, and when does it knock? It never knocks. You can wait a whole lifetime, listening, hoping, and you will hear no knocking. None at all. You are opportunity, and you must knock on the door leading to your destiny. You prepare yourself to recognize opportunity, to pursue and seize opportunity as you develop the strength of your personality, and build a self-image with which you are able to live -- with your self-respect alive and growing.
Maltz, Maxwell
There is no future in any job. The future lies in the man who holds the job.
Crane, George W.
Opportunities, many times, are so small that we glimpse them not and yet they are often the seeds of great enterprises. Opportunities are also everywhere and so you must always let your hook be hanging. When you least expect it, a great fish will swim by.
Mandino, Og
You are, at this moment, standing, right in the middle of your own acres of diamonds.
Nightingale, Earl
We are continually faced by great opportunities brilliantly disguised as insoluble problems.
Iacocca, Lee
One cannot expect to coast along and rise automatically to the top, no matter what friends you may have in the company. There may have been a time when, in large corporations, a person could rise simply because he had a stock interest or because he had friends in top management. That's not true today. Success in business requires training and discipline and hard work. But if you're not frightened by these things, the opportunities are just as great today as they ever were.
Rockerfeller, David
When the sun rises, it rises for everyone.
Proverb, Cuban
One can present people with opportunities. One cannot make them equal to them.
Lehmann, Rosamond
Arrange Whatever pieces come your way.
Woolf, Virginia
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
Opportunity is no more than a better way of serving and providing for humanities needs.
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
One must pass through the circumference of time before arriving at the center of opportunity.
Gracian, Baltasar
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
THERE ARE NO MISTAKES, only opportunities.
Tina Fey
Take a lesson from the mosquito. She never waits for an opening -- she makes one.
Kirkpatrick, Kirk
Opportunity is missed by most people because it comes dressed in overalls and looks like work.
Edison, Thomas A.
The same fence that shuts others out shuts you in.
Copeland, William Taylor
We see the brightness of a new page where everything yet can happen.
Rainer, Maria Rilke
When you have the opportunity, you strike.
Laver, Rod
It's better to be prepared for an opportunity and not have one than to have an opportunity and not be prepared.
YoungJr., Whitney
A good deal happens in a man's life that he isn't responsible for. Fortunate openings occur; but it is safe to remember that such breaks are occurring all the time, and other things being equal, the advantage goes to the man who is ready.
Downs, Lawrence
The golden opportunity you are seeking is in yourself. It is not in your environment; it is not in luck or chance, or the help of others; it is in yourself alone.
Marden, Orison Swett
Great opportunities to help others seldom come, but small ones surround us daily.
Koch, Sally
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.
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
Do you see difficulties in every opportunity or opportunities in every difficulty?
Most successful men have not achieved their distinction by having some new talent or opportunity that was at hand.
Barton, Bruce
Always have your hook baited, in the pool you least think, there will be a fish.
Ovid
A sign on the door of Opportunity reads Push.
Every wall is a door.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Opportunity often comes in disguised in the form of misfortune, or temporary defeat.
Hill, Napoleon
He's got the whole world at his feet and he can't find his shoes.
Williamson, John
There is far more opportunity than there is ability.
Edison, Thomas A.
Opportunity creates desire.
Proverb, Dutch
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 the doors of opportunity swing open, we must make sure that we are not too drunk or too indifferent to walk through.
Jackson, Jesse
