The world is in sore need of men who can do things. Indeed, cases can easily be recalled by every one where Opportunity actually smashed in the door and collared her candidate and dragged him forth to success. These cases are exceptional, usually you have to meet Opportunity half-way. But the only place where you can get away from Opportunity is to lie down and die. Opportunity does not trouble dead men, or dead ones who flatter themselves that they are alive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45076</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Winning is not a sometime thing; it’s an all time thing.
