Opportunity is rare, and a wise man will never let it go by him.
      - Bayard Taylor

The great moments of life are but moments like the others. Your doom is spoken in a word or two. A single look from the eyes; a mere pressure of the hand, may decide it; or of the lip,s though they cannot speak.
      - William Makepeace Thackeray

Opportunities multiply as they are seized.
      - Sun Tzu (Sunzi)

An opportunity well taken is the only weapon of advantage.
      - John Udall (Udale or Uvedale),
        To the Earl of Essex

Present opportunities are not to be neglected; they rarely visit us twice.
      - Voltaire (Francois Marie Arouet Voltaire)

The opportunity for doing mischief is found a hundred times a day, and of doing good once in a year.
  [Fr., L'occasion de faire du mal se trouve cent fois par jour, et celle de faire du bien une fois dans l'annee.]
      - Voltaire (Francois Marie Arouet Voltaire),
        Zadig

The cleverest of all the devils is Opportunity.
      - Christoph Martin Wieland

Miss not the occasion; by the forelock take that subtle power, the never-halting time.
      - William Wordsworth

Turning for them who pas, the common dust
  Of servile opportunity to gold.
      - William Wordsworth, Desultory Stanzas
