Opportunity has hair in front; behind she is bald; if you seize her by the forelock, you may hold her, but, if suffered to escape, not Jupiter himself can catch her again.

Opportunity only knocks once.

Opportunities may come but they never linger.

Opportunities, like eggs, come one at a time.

When you are an anvil be patient; when a hammer, strike.
