Quotations regarding 'Opportunity'

Choose a letter: 
Having the opportunity to follow the market frequently gives you the opportunity to see if you need to reevaluate your portfolio. But reevaluating your portfolio shouldn't trigger a sell signal so frequently.
Maria Bartiromo, American Journalist (1967-  )
I think the value of venues like CNBC is that they give investors an opportunity to reevaluate the situation minute by minute, but maybe we don't need to follow the market so closely.
Maria Bartiromo, American Journalist (1967-  )
Most successful men have not achieved their distinction by having some new talent or opportunity that was at hand.
Bruce Barton, American Author (1886-1967)
The film was fair to his musical achievement and gave him every opportunity to explain himself.
Martin Bashir, British Journalist (1963-  )
I'm thinking about directing, but I know it's a lot of work and I appreciate what directors do and I would like to be good at it. The opportunity has presented itself four to five times, and I usually said no because of the script.
Angela Bassett, American Actress (1958-  )
I really do think that any deep crisis is an opportunity to make your life extraordinary in some way.
Martha Beck, American Author (1962-  )
It would make me a lot happier if I could meet up again next year with as many friends as possible from all over the world who I've met during my career. That's where the great opportunity lies, for me personally, in our role as World Cup host.
Franz Beckenbauer, German Athlete (1945-  )
It's wonderful to have the most important thing in the world there first thing in the morning. And especially in this business, where the opportunity to think everything is about you is there every day, now I really know that it isn't all about me.
Kate Beckinsale, English Actress (1973-  )
Certainly I get a lot personally out of it as well, there's the recognition and things like that but mostly I try to take that as an opportunity to explain why I hope we could see more projects like Apache out there and why it's a good thing for society.
Brian Behlendorf, American Scientist (1973-  )
The only place opportunity cannot be found is in a closed-minded person.
Bo Bennett, American Businessman (1972-  )
If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door.
Milton Berle, American Comedian (1908-2002)
At this period the enthusiasm of the amateur was fast giving way to a more steady commercial instinct, and I let no opportunity slip of improving my position, but I felt that I was still labouring under the disadvantage of not having acquired some technical profession.
Henry Bessemer, English Scientist (1813-1898)
In America, they shoot budgets and schedules, and they don't shoot films any more. There's more opportunity in Europe to make films that at least have a purity of intent.
Paul Bettany, English Actor (1971-  )
The government I led gave ordinary people peace, security, dignity, and opportunity to progress.
Benazir Bhutto, Pakistani Leader (1953-2007)
Arafat's departure has created an awesome opportunity.
Joe Biden, American Vice President (1942-  )
Here at home, when Americans were standing in long lines to give blood after the attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, we squandered an obvious opportunity to make service a noble cause again, and rekindle an American spirit of community.
Joe Biden, American Vice President (1942-  )
I love playing Jim. I love working with this cast and the opportunity to come back and work with them again was just way too appealing for me. Also, I think this is a great way to wrap up the franchise.
Jason Biggs, American Actor (1978-  )
You who live your lives in cities or among peaceful ways cannot always tell whether your friends are the kind who would go through fire for you. But on the Plains one's friends have an opportunity to prove their mettle.
Buffalo Bill, American Celebrity (1846-1917)
When you share work, and you have the opportunity of seeing people you like doing what they do best, and you also interchange socially with them, it's very addictive.
Jacqueline Bisset, English Actress (1944-  )
The Wellcome Foundation offered me the chance to establish a small academic research unit, modestly funded, but with total independence. The real opportunity, however, came from King's College, London.
James W. Black, Scottish Scientist (1924-  )
