Security is mostly superstition... Avoiding danger
is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. -Helen Keller
Life
is certainly only worthwhile as it represents struggle for a worthy cause. There is no struggle in perfect security. I am
quite certain that the human being could not continue to exist if he had perfect security. -President Dwight D. Eisenhower
There is no security on this earth; there is only opportunity. -Douglas MacArthur
The reason so many people
never get anywhere in life is because, when opportunity knocks, they are in the backyard looking for four-leaf clovers.
I
would like to amend the idea of being in the right place at the right time. There are many people who were in the
right place at the right time but didn't know it. You have to recognize when the right place and the right time fuse
and take advantage of that opportunity. There are plenty of opportunities out there. You can't sit back and wait.
-Ellen Metcalf
It is better to be prepared for an opportunity and not have one than to have an opportunity and
not be prepared. -Whitney Young
Opportunity follows struggle. It follows effort. It follows hard work. It
doesn't come before. -Shelby Steele
Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and
looks like work. -Thomas Edison
