Opportunity


 "If you think of this world as a place intended simply for our happiness, you find it quite intolerable:
think of it as a place for correction and it's not so bad. Imagine a set of people all living in the same
building. Half of them think it is a hotel, the other half think it is a prison. Those who think it a hotel
might regard it as quite intolerable, and those who thought it was a prison might decide that it was
really surprisingly comfortable. So that what seems the ugly doctrine is one that comforts and strengthens you in the end. The people who try to hold an optimistic view of this world would become
pessimists: the people who hold a pretty stern view of it become optimistic"
  C.S. Lewis

 A man with a surplus can control circumstances, but a man without a surplus is controlled by them, and often has no opportunity to exercise judgment.
  Harvey S. Firestone

 A pessimist is somebody who complains about the noise when opportunity knocks.
  Oscar Wilde

 America is another name for opportunity.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

  Mary Frances Berry

 Don't wait for extraordinary opportunities. Seize common occasions and make them great. Weak men wait for opportunities; strong men make them.

 During a negotiation, it would be wise not to take anything personally. If you leave personalities out of it, you will be able to see opportunities more objectively.

 Each Day Is A Brand New Opportunity To Be Jesus To The World.

 Equal opportunity means everyone will have a fair chance at being incompetent.
  Dr. Laurence J. Peter

 Even when opportunity knocks a man still has to get up off his seat and open the door

 Every day is a new opportunity. You can build on yesterday's success or put its failures behind and start over again. That's the way life is, with a new game every day, and that's the way baseball is.

 France is delighted at this new opportunity to show the world that when one has the will one can succeed in joining peoples who have been brought close by history.

 Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, old Time is still a-flying. And this same flower that smiles today, tomorrow will be dying.
  Robert Herrick
