Opportunity Quotations Click  Four things come not back: the spoken word, the spent arrow, the past, the neglected opportunity....Al-Halif, Omar Idn When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.Bell, Alexander Graham Our grand business in life is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at handCarlyle, Thomas A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.Churchill, Sir Winston Leonard Spencer There are so many opportunities in life, that the loss of two or three capabilities is not necessarily debilitating. A handicap can give you the opportunity to focus more on art, writing, or musicDavis, Jim Next to knowing when to seize an opportunity, the most important thing in life is to know when to forego an advantageDisraeli, Benjamin We should never lose an occasion.

All the opportunities in the world are waiting to be grasped by people who are in love with what they're doing.Goldwyn, Samuel We pass through this world but once. Few tragedies can be more extensive than the stunting of life, few injustices deeper than the denial of an opportunity to strive or even to hope, by a limit imposed from without, but falsely identified as lying within.Gould, Stephen Jay Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,Old Time is still a flying; And that same flower that blooms today, Tomorrow shall be dying. Herrick, Robert Opportunity... often it come disguised in the form of misfortune, or temporary defeat.Hill, Napoleon Do not wait; the time will never be ''just right.'' Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go alongHill, Napoleon Oh, my friend, it's not what they take away from you that counts. It's what you do with what you have left.Humphrey, Hubert Horatio He who refuses to embrace a unique opportunity loses the prize as surely as if he had failed.James, William « Previous Page | Next Page » |
