Opportunity Quotes
Showing: 21 - 30 Opportunity Quotes of 45
Intentions often melt in the face of unexpected opportunity.
Remember that you ought to behave in life as you would at a banquet. As something is being passed around, it comes to you; stretch out your hand, take a portion of it politely. It passes on; do not detain it. Or it has not come to you yet; do not project your desire to meet it, but wait until it comes in front of you.

Know thine opportunity.
While we stop to think, we often miss our opportunity.
If a window of opportunity appears, don't pull down the shade.
If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door.
Every exit is an entrance somewhere else.
Once you have missed the first buttonhole, you'll never manage to button up.
