A man must make his opportunity, as oft as find it.
FRANCIS BACON, Advancement of Learning
Regret of neglected opportunity is the worst hell that a living soul can inhabit.
RAFAEL SABATINI, Scaramouche
I think everyone is an opportunist if they have an opportunity.
KATHARINE HEPBURN, Susan Crimp's Katharine Hepburn Once Said...
- There is a glass called opportunity
- All pregnant with bright prophecies, if man
- But read at the propitious moment.
- But,--let the fecund second slip and lo!
- The globule tumbles from his coward's hands
- Splintering a rain of lost forevers
- Upon the sunless stretches of the world.
PHILIP MOELLER, The Roadhouse in Arden
If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door.
MILTON BERLE, as quoted in Dana Lightman's POWER Optimism
