Dave Navarro	There have been times when I felt suicidal and I would stop my head from going in that direction of negativity because I thought there'd be something I'd miss that was funny in the future. If there's a chance I'm going to laugh tomorrow then want to live to experience that.	101

Chris Hardwick	I think for a lot of people, bowling is sort of a joke. But I love it, and it means a lot to me, so any chance to help promote it or celebrate it or not make the hackiest jokes - 'Bowlers are like plumbers and they wear the craziest shirts!' - I'm way into.	102

Emir Kusturica	Every movie that I do, if you analyze the stories, you can notice that in each story, that within the movie after the first 15 minutes, it could fall apart.

Kevin Durand	A lot of my friends growing up were hunters, but I spent all my time on the ice hurting actual humans playing hockey. I never had the chance to run through the woods and shoot at a moose or deer. I was shooting pucks at goaltender's heads.	102
Lydia Ko	A 3-foot putt can be more nerve-racking than a 9-foot putt because a 3-foot putt you should be getting in. A 9-footer, there's a chance it won't go in.	102
Morris Chestnut	I did a film which was considered an independent movie with Dustin Hoffman and Andy Garcia called Confidence, and that's the type of film I was willing to take a chance on that because of the caliber of people involved with the film.	102
Regina Spektor	I figured, 'If I ever get offered a chance to sign a deal, I'll only do it if I got to do it how I want.' So my contract is structured in such a way that I'm really protected.	102
Tom Kite	When I woke up Sunday morning at the Open and stepped outside and felt the wind and rain in my face, I knew I had an excellent chance to win if I just took my time and trusted myself.	102
Aaron Johnson	I was lucky enough, when I was younger, to have the chance to do as much as possible, and I found what I wanted to do. I did swimming, gymnastics, kickboxing and the one that took off more than the others was acting.	102
Christa B. Allen	I like to travel any chance I get, even if it's just a local vacation to San Diego or Palm Springs or wherever. I just like to get out and do stuff and see the world.	102
David Cook	With the Chiefs, you can't live in Kansas City and not like the Chiefs. To go catch a game at Arrowhead is a pretty great experience. I haven't had the chance to go to games anywhere else, but, from what I'm told, I don't really need to.	102
Glenn Miller	By giving the public a rich and full melody, distinctly arranged and well played, all the time creating new tone colors and patterns, I feel we have a better chance of being successful. I want a kick to my band, but I don't want the rhythm to hog the spotlight.	102
Lenny Wilkens	If you fail the first time that's just a chance to start over again.	102
Mark Shields	As Bill Clinton said so eloquently at the convention, during Vietnam there was a chance to serve; there was a chance not to serve.	102
Scott McCloud	Today, comics is one of the very few forms of mass communication in which individual voices still have a chance to be heard.	102
Drew Seeley	The proposal is the only thing that the guy has control over in the entire wedding deal. It is your one chance to make this moment stand out, not only for you, but for her.	102
Jojo Moyes	I find my best writing time is actually 6 A.M., before the detritus of the day - the fish fingers and the school uniform and dogs and bills - have had a chance to clog up my brain. I can usually get 500 words done before 7 A.M. But it is difficult, and the Internet, and social networking, are terrible timesucks.	102
Mark Harmon	I like this job - most days I have a chance to make breakfast and take the kids to school or to read 'em a bedtime story. It's almost like a normal life.	102
Rolf Harris	If you turn a smiling face on the world, you've got a chance of finishing up a good-looking old person.	102
Michael Feldman	I've always admired the kind of guy who moves into a place and restores it. Thanks to my efforts, the guy who moves into mine will have a chance to do just that.	102
Shukla Bose	Parikrma aims to give underprivileged children an equal chance at education so they can integrate with kids of private schools and, later, with the society. I want these children to hold high-end jobs at multinational companies and not work at the lower end of the spectrum.	102
Constantine Karamanlis	We are given to the cult of personality; when things go badly we look to some messiah to save us. If by chance we think we have found one, it will not be long before we destroy him.	102
Jay Chiat	Taking risks gives me energy.	102
Joel Parkinson	If you can lessen the chance of a bad injury by being strong, you have to do it.	102
Marlene Dumas	I don't go to a psychiatrist. I don't go to a gym. I run away from my accountant, I run away from my dentist. They are all supposed to help you, but I like to stay in bed, where I have a chance to reflect, like Rossellini.	102
Anu Garg	In modern times, dogs may be pampered, but historically, a dog's life wasn't much to bark about. Hence a dog's chance is a small chance.	102
Johnny Gimble	When I get asked for advice for a young person starting in the music business, I tell them, 'Play every chance you get, and be real lucky.'	102
Marie Brenner	Traveling in India gives you a chance to observe a renaissance.	102
James Durbin	Give metal a chance!	102
Joseph Stefano	Psycho 11 and III say, in effect, there's no way to survive with a psychological problem. If you've got it, the law can keep you locked up because there's no chance for cure.	102
Thomas Jefferson	Our greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and freedom in all just pursuits.	103
Albert Camus	Freedom is nothing but a chance to be better.	103
John Stuart Mill	A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.	103
Bono	As a rock star, I have two instincts, I want to have fun, and I want to change the world. I have a chance to do both.	103
Alexander Fleming	I have been trying to point out that in our lives chance may have an astonishing influence and, if I may offer advice to the young laboratory worker, it would be this - never to neglect an extraordinary appearance or happening.	103
Ban Ki-moon	Climate change is destroying our path to sustainability. Ours is a world of looming challenges and increasingly limited resources. Sustainable development offers the best chance to adjust our course.	103
Emmanuel Jal	I am proof that one person can rise above any challenge, and if I can, then so will others if they are given the chance.	103
Gisele Bundchen	I believe in taking chances and living your life. Sometimes doors open and others close and you have to figure out which one you're going to take. I'm always for the one that's challenging.	103
Ian Rush	I've got a place in Portugal, which I like very much, but I've just been working in Malaysia for five weeks. My family had a chance to come over and we really loved it, particularly the island of Pangkor.	103
Ida Tarbell	The whole force of the respectable circles to which I belonged, that respectable circle which knew as I did not the value of security won, the slender chance of replacing it if lost or abandoned, was against me.	103
Jimmy Johnson	Do you want to be safe and good, or do you want to take a chance and be great?	103
Katherine Jenkins	Everything in my career is my decision - every picture, every outfit. You get one chance at this, and I never saw myself as being a puppet.	103
Max Weber	Power is the chance to impose your will within a social context, even when opposed and regardless of the integrity of that chance.	103
Muhammad Yunus	All human beings are born entrepreneurs. Some get a chance to unleash that capacity. Some never got the chance, never knew that he or she has that capacity.	103
Pancho Villa	My sole ambition is to rid Mexico of the class that has oppressed her and given the people a chance to know what real liberty means. And if I could bring that about today by giving up my life, I would do it gladly.	103
Patrick Wilson	I try to shave at night so my skin has a chance to settle by the early morning call-time.	103
Q'orianka Kilcher	I used to have all these plans and think 'Ah, I have my whole life figured out', but then I realized no matter how much I plan: life happens! So I find myself living day to day trying to do my best, embracing every moment as a learning opportunity and chance to get to know myself a little more.	103
Roberto Clemente	If you have a chance to accomplish something that will make things better for people coming behind you, and you don't do that, you are wasting your time on this earth.	103
Sidney Crosby	The more you hesitate in a game, the more your chance of getting hit. Your focus isn't there. When you hesitate, usually you're in trouble.	103
Tia Mowry	Having a second chance makes you want to work even harder.	103
Two Chainz	My whole story is just about me having a second chance.	103
Xenophanes	No human being will ever know the Truth, for even if they happen to say it by chance, they would not even known they had done so.	103
Yulia Tymoshenko	My goal in politics from the very beginning has been, and will be, the goal of giving Ukraine a chance to finally secure a firm footing in the world as a competitive, independent and real European state.	103
Yuichiro Miura	When I planned to ski Everest, the first thing I faced was, 'How can I return alive?' All the preparation and training was based on this question. But the more I prepared, I knew the chance of survival was very slim. Nobody in the world had done this before, so I told myself that I must face death. Otherwise, I am not eligible.	103
Chuck Yeager	You don't concentrate on risks. You concentrate on results. No risk is too great to prevent the necessary job from getting done.	103
Craig Bruce	It's funny how social activists usually protest against the only things that have a credible chance of achieving the activists' goals.	103
Eric Topol	For people who have heart disease, statins are great. But if all you've had is high cholesterol, what you're doing is taking this 1/100 chance of getting a benefit and offsetting it with 1/200 chance of getting diabetes.	103
Frank Gifford	Before the first year, nobody gave it a chance. Now, 36 years later, everybody knows Monday Night Football.	103
Fred Barnes	Presidents with strong nerves are decisive. They don't balk at unpopular decisions. They are willing to make people angry. Bush had strong nerves. Clinton, who passed up a chance to eliminate Osama bin Laden, did not. Obama is a people pleaser, a trait not normally associated with nerves of steel.	103
Fritz Zwicky	The universe is so unique and perfect that it could not have originated by chance but was divined by flawless, creative design.	103
Gary Gygax	Random chance plays a huge part in everybody's life.	103
Guy Clark	Ain't no chance if you don't take it.	103
Jenny Holzer	Well, I think in trying to make life seem real enough that one is moved to do something about the more atrocious things. By going really far afield into a completely fake world, maybe there's a chance to make things resonant somehow - or in this case, truly terrifying. To make it as bad as the real stuff that's happening.	103
John Legend	To have the chance to see your music be elevated and to have almost universally positive response to that music, makes me feel better every day. I feel more confident and inspired, and that's fun.	103
John Paul Jones	It seems to be a law of nature, inflexible and inexorable, that those who will not risk cannot win.	103
Leland Ryken	It is true that the Puritans banned all recreation on Sundays and all games of chance, gambling, bear baiting, horse racing, and bowling in or around taverns at all times. They did so, not because they were opposed to fun, but because they judged these activities to be inherently harmful or immoral.	103
Mike Love	The great thing about getting older is that you get a chance to tell the people in your life who matter what they mean to you.	103
Paula Cole	The flower has opened, has been in the sun and is unafraid. I'm taking more chances; I'm bold and proud.	103
Sammy Hagar	Every year on your birthday, you get a chance to start new.	103
Scott Baio	It's a werewolf movie with Christina Ricci, and it was a chance to work with some good people. But playing yourself is always fairly risky because you gotta watch how you goof on yourself.	103
Thomas Clarkson	Neither can men, by the same principles, be considered as lands, goods, or houses, among possessions. It is necessary that all property should be inferiour to its possessor. But how does the slave differ from his master, but by chance?	103
Wendy O. Williams	The important thing is to build up my cardiovascular system, so I have the stamina to do stunts. To me, stepping over the line, taking a chance and succeeding is the ultimate freedom, be it in rock and roll or when executing a really challenging routine.	103
William Ernest Henley	In the fell clutch of circumstance, I have not winced nor cried aloud: Under the bludgeoning of chance my head is bloody, but unbowed.	103
Bill Wyman	You're always frustrated, you don't have the chance to do a song on the album, like the Beatles did with Ringo and George, or like Led Zeppelin, where everybody was given a chance to contribute. There never is a chance with the Stones.	103
Daniel Alarcon	Peru is a country where more than half the people would emigrate if given the chance. That's half the population that is willing to abandon everything they know for the uncertainty of a life in a foreign land, in another language.	103
Doug Liman	The more real I got on 'The Bourne Identity,' the more interesting it got. So 'Fair Game' was the chance to go a few more steps in that direction. In fact, I discovered this whole other world that I had ignored in the 'Bourne' franchise, which is the domestic life of a spy, and how you make the two halves of your life coexist.	103
El DeBarge	I want the world to know that everybody deserves a second chance.	103
Ezra Stiles	We stand a better chance with aristocracy, whether hereditary or elective, than with monarchy.	103
Henry Ossawa Tanner	It seemed to me that this might be a great pageant, which would give a chance for a very interesting picture.	103
John Sununu	Growing up, I was encouraged to get a good education, get a real job doing something I enjoyed, and, should the opportunity present itself, consider public service as just that: a chance to serve, not an end in itself.	103
Petra Nemcova	There are lots of things which I would love to tell him, but in some way, I also feel that I lost the person closest to me. And I got a second chance to live. So in a way I feel that I live for both of us... and I will do my best.	103
Stephen Colletti	Who I was back then, when I started on 'One Tree Hill,' is so different from who I am now. Coming off Laguna, being 19 years old, and thrown into this odd, ridiculous spotlight, wasn't for me. There have always been haters, and people don't want to give you a chance or the benefit of the doubt, but this show gave me an opportunity.	103
Tony Gwynn	I'm a chemistry guy. I believe you've got to play together to have a chance to win.	103
Anna Neagle	I have always found it difficult to wait for things - whether it was to see my father or sailor brother, Alan, again after their long sea trips, or the chance of a better job, or even new curtains.	103
Carl Levin	If we have a chance of succeeding and bringing stability and democracy to Iraq, it will mean learning from our mistakes, not denying them and not ignoring them.	103
Charlie Kimball	I have a lot of great racing memories growing up in Europe as a young boy - playing with car parts on my dad's desk, watching the races on Sunday afternoons to try and spot him on TV, even having the chance to go to Formula 1 races where he was working.	103
Diane Ladd	We all have the same destiny. The difference is opening ourselves up to possibilities to joy, hope, and happiness along the way. Give yourself and others a chance to take advantage of what's out there and available.	103
Eden Phillpotts	You never know what a fool you can be till life gives you the chance.	103
Gillian Cross	One of the fantastic things about books, fiction or non-fiction, is the way they give you a chance to look into different lives.	103
Jonathan Zittrain	I don't know how much thought is behind it, but it seems to me highly effective the way that Facebook will let somebody tag a photo with a friend's name, then others who are a friend of that friend can perhaps immediately see the photo, and the friend, in the meantime, has a chance to wander back and un-tag it.	103
Kevin Chapman	The stuff I did in 'Rescue Me' was great. It gave me the opportunity to play comedy, and Denis Leary was the first one to take a chance with me. And from that experience, we had a comedy pilot that we did that I was going to play the lead in. And then 'Person of Interest' came along. They're all new experiences.	103
Linda Lavin	The play is one of the very few pieces of great dramatic and comic writing that I have read in a long, long time. I was drawn to it because of the power of the writing, which gives me the actor a chance to explore many facets of myself.	103
Russell Hoban	When you suffer an attack of nerves you're being attacked by the nervous system. What chance has a man got against a system?	103
Stanislas Wawrinka	It's simple - I love food. I am travelling all-year round, so I have the chance to eat every food possible, so I am really lucky with that.	103
Timothy F. Cahill	No money in this world could convince me to play for Liverpool. That's not a lack of respect for Liverpool supporters or the football club. It's respect for the Everton supporters. You just can't do that. It goes against everything that I stand for. No chance.	103
Bob Greene	If you look closely enough, amid the merciless and the bitter, there is always the chance that you may find comfort and the promise of something good.	103
Dinah Shore	Trouble is part of your life - if you don't share it, you don't give the person who loves you a chance to love you enough.	103
Elie Saab	Worldwide is an overused word. But it's true that being known has given me new ideas and a chance to get to know new people who think in different ways. I want to hear myself referred to as Elie Saab, without labels or titles.	103
Grizz Chapman	Why can't a seven-foot guy play a doctor? Why can't I be a teacher? Why can't I be a football coach? Why can't I be a cab driver? Anything. Anything else than that. I can cry. I can do those things that they think the big guys can't do. So just give us a chance.	103
Jo Nesbo	I have questioned myself about the brutality in the last few novels. Actually in 'The Leopard,' in hindsight, I feel I went a little bit too far with screaming blood. There are a couple of scenes that I regret and wish I had the chance to rewrite. 'Phantom' has less blood.	103
Johnny Marr	Festivals are great because you get to just walk around the corner and see a new band that you've heard but not had the chance to check out.	103
Marie Lu	We determine whether a book is for boys or girls long before the reader gets a chance to decide: we package them with soldiers and ballet slippers on their covers, war machines and glittering gowns.	103
Martin Puryear	Although idea and form are ultimately paramount in my work, so too are chance, accident, and rawness.	103
Thomas Pynchon	There was no difference between the behavior of a god and the operations of pure chance.	103
Douglas Lain	If life is a video game, then most of us have no chance of winning, if by winning you mean succeeding in a quest or saving a princess.	103
Dwight Gooden	I figured that pitchers had a better chance of getting drafted than fielders, so I decided I should be a pitcher. But I never expected to be picked in the first round. I wasn't even sure I'd get picked at all.	103
Roberto Alomar	When I started playing the game of baseball, the more I played and the better numbers I got, the more I started thinking about the Hall of Fame. But I never thought I had a chance to be there.	103
Robert Altman	Maybe there's a chance to get back to grown-up films. Anything that uses humor and dramatic values to deal with human emotions and gets down to what people are to people.	103
Stanislaw Lem	A dream will always triumph over reality, once it is given the chance.	103
J. R. Martinez	I'm going to write a book, continue acting, continue motivational speaking and just share with people who I am and what I've learned in my second chance of life and pass it on to people in their first chance of life.	103
Jesse Metcalfe	The reason so many celebrities try to keep things secret is you want the chance to get to know someone without the glare of public scrutiny.	103
Jeffrey Lurie	If you had to point to anything, it's when you've had as much success as we've had and are so close to winning a Super Bowl, at some stage you have an opportunity to think the next move, even if it's not consistent with all your previous moves, will be the one that gives you the chance to win the Lombardi Trophy.	103
Mikhail Sholokhov	I am one of those authors who consider it their highest honour and their highest liberty to have a completely untrammelled chance of using their pens to serve the working people.	103
Jane Chen	Many premature babies are never given a chance to make it out of the hospital.	103
Joseph P. Kennedy III	Whether it's raising the minimum wage, fixing our broken immigration system or supporting an economic climate that gives our businesses that chance to succeed, I hope to continue to fight these important battles on behalf of my constituents.	103
Jean Piaget	It is with children that we have the best chance of studying the development of logical knowledge, mathematical knowledge, physical knowledge, and so forth.	104
Bill Dedman	Each year, at the typical nuclear reactor in the U.S., there's a 1 in 74,176 chance of an earthquake strong enough to cause damage to the reactor's core, which could expose the public to radiation. No tsunami required.	104
Brandy Norwood	To be on this set today, I feel very blessed for the second chance and for the opportunity, my record company believing in me and everybody here just showing me so much love and support.	104
Charles M. Schwab	Money is often a matter of chance or good fortune and is not the mark of a successful life. It is not the thing that brings a throb of pleasure or a thrill into my life. And I would not pose as a successful man if that were to be the measure.	104
Ezra Pound	The real trouble with war (modern war) is that it gives no one a chance to kill the right people.	104
Frances O'Grady	All the evidence shows very clearly that if you are a member of a trade union you are likely to get better pay, more equal pay, better health and safety, more chance to get training, more chance to have conditions of work that help if you have caring responsibilities... the list goes on!	104
James A. Garfield	A pound of pluck is worth a ton of luck.	104
Kate Smith	There's no second chance on stage, and I was trained to make the most of my first chance.	104
Kenneth Branagh	Many of us live in dysfunctional families, and so even if it's in a fairy tale, or perhaps because it's in a fairy tale, we have a chance to look at that side of our reflected lives differently.	104
Nicholas A. Christakis	One reason citizens, politicians and university donors sometimes lack confidence in the social sciences is that social scientists too often miss the chance to declare victory and move on to new frontiers.	104
Richard Eyre	If the arts are held up solely as a means of social insight, fantasy is denied the chance to be commonplace and reality the chance to be exotic.	104
Theodore Isaac Rubin	I must learn to love the fool in me - the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries.	104
Tommy Lasorda	If you don't love the Dodgers, there's a good chance you may not get into Heaven.	104
W. Somerset Maugham	We are not the same persons this year as last; nor are those we love. It is a happy chance if we, changing, continue to love a changed person.	104
Ed Wood	Why if I had half a chance, I could make an entire movie using this stock footage. The story opens on these mysterious explosions. Nobody knows what's causing them, but it's upsetting all the buffalo. So, the military are called in to solve the mystery.	104
Marc Bolan	Be strong and follow your own convictions. You can't assume there is a lot of time to do what you like. This is what David Bowie is afraid of: that he will die before he gets a chance to make a real strong contribution.	104
Steve King	We should recognize that on the day that we are born, our glass is half full. In America your chance to fill your glass the rest of the way up is greater than it is anyplace else on this planet.	104
William Wells Brown	All I demand for the black man is, that the white people shall take their heels off his neck, and let him have a chance to rise by his own efforts.	104
Ann Bancroft	A life lesson for me is, how do you muster the courage to take on a new risk? Whether it's starting up a business or taking on a new project or expedition. I think the risks that we take are all relative to the risk-taker.	104
Blair Underwood	My son had his eighth birthday recently and we had a chance to borrow the film and show it to all of his friends that was at his birthday party and they loved it. I was a little nervous. I said they might not even like it, and say his daddy's movie is wack, but they loved it.	104
Boman Irani	I was overjoyed when I was offered the title role in 'Well Done Abba.' I was ready for the role even before I heard the story because you don't ask questions when it is Shyam Benegal's film. It is the chance of a lifetime.	104
Cal Ripken, Jr.	I love baseball. The game allowed me the influence to impact kids in a positive way. This gives me a chance to talk to some social issues.	104
Chuck Todd	Forget the historic nature of his election having to do with skin color - Obama has an opportunity offered to few presidents: the chance to set the course of the nation for decades, if not generations, to come. Who knows: perhaps in the near future, our grandchildren will spend money with Obama's face on it.	104
Danielle de Niese	In a fit at the bookstore one day, I bought all my favourite composers' biographies: Schubert, Massenet, Wolf. I've still not had a chance to read them; it breaks my heart. But when you travel so much, you just can't take that many books with you.	104
James Comey	Stuff doesn't matter - boats, cars, fancy things don't matter. What matters, what will matter to me, is the love of the people around me, and did I take a chance? Did I seize an opportunity to do something for people with the talents that I was lucky enough to be given? Did I make a difference in the lives of people who needed me?	104
Larry Niven	We need to take command of the solar system to gain that wealth, and to escape the sea of paper our government is becoming, and for some decent chance of stopping a Dinosaur Killer asteroid.	104
Michael Chabon	Louis Pasteur said, 'Chance favors the prepared mind.' If you're really engaged in the writing, you'll work yourself out of whatever jam you find yourself in.	104
Philip Gibbs	In front of us was not a line but a fortress position, twenty miles deep, entrenched and fortified, defended by masses of machine-gun posts and thousands of guns in a wide arc. No chance for cavalry!	104
Ross Mathews	Not to be too preachy, but I would really recommend to people, if you get the chance, to trust yourselves to leap without a net, because that will build the confidence. You know, you might shock yourself with how much you don't need a net because you can catch yourself.	104
Atifete Jahjaga	The power of women in the politics is a soft power. It is a positive change that our country and other countries in the region... are making by giving a chance to women.	104
Bennie Thompson	At home I have hunting magazines on my nightstand. I'm an avid hunter. I hunt every chance I get.	104
Daniel Baldwin	Homicide is the best material I've had the chance to do.	104
Tom Kite	Give luck a chance to happen.	104
Tracy Austin	Winning that first game was so important; my mother always said that the first game of the second set was the chance to keep it going if you were ahead or change things if you were behind.	104
Adam Arkin	I think in the case of horror, it's a chance to confront a lot of your worse fears and those fears usually have to do, ironically, with powerlessness and isolation.	104
Jack Youngblood	Good luck is a residue of preparation.	104
Jeff Greenfield	There are good people who are dealt a bad hand by fate, and bad people who live long, comfortable, privileged lives. A small twist of fate can save or end a life; random chance is a permanent, powerful player in each of our lives, and in human history as well.	104
James Vincent McMorrow	You get one chance to make an impression, and coasting through is a disservice.	104
Mac Davis	There was a chance for me to write one song for the section where Elvis sat in his black leather outfit and sang the old hits. At eight oclock the next morning I had written Memories.	104
Rod Blagojevich	Health care is not a privilege. It's a right. It's a right as fundamental as civil rights. It's a right as fundamental as giving every child a chance to get a public education.	104
Anna Louise Strong	So far we have not convinced the Chinese authorities. My own brother was refused a visa on what was probably my last chance of seeing him when he was going around the world on a tour. Scott Nearing was similarly refused.	104
Avan Jogia	If I've been dating someone for, say, five months, and she cheats on me, I don't think it would be worth it. I'm not committed enough to the situation to give her a second chance.	104
Mark Strong	It's great to have the chance to play a character before he goes to the dark side, or the yellow side if you will. Normally, you don't get that opportunity. The narrative of a movie usually demands that you are that guy from the start.	104
Master P	I think my thing is I grew up in the ghetto, and I was able to get a second chance. That's what I'm trying to tell kids.	104
Raymond Aubrac	If you begin feeling beaten, you will achieve nothing. If you fight, you will perhaps have a chance of achieving something.	104
Robert Doisneau	Chance is the one thing you can't buy. You have to pay for it and you have to pay for it with your life, spending a lot of time, you pay for it with time, not the wasting of time but the spending of time.	104
Joe Sacco	I will interview bigwigs if I get the chance, but you are seldom surprised by people in power - you've got to get awfully damn close to get anything new.	104
Jackie Stewart	There has been a huge advance in technology, which has improved the safety of the cars incredibly, but there are still some heavy crash impacts and in certain circumstances there is still the chance of fire today.	104
John Agyekum Kufuor	There has been enough suffering in our country, there has been enough of children whose dreams die before they have a chance to grow and there has been enough of our elders who, having served their nation, are forced into indignity in their old age.	104
Desmond Tutu	Forgiveness says you are given another chance to make a new beginning.	105
Hunter S. Thompson	Buy the ticket, take the ride.	105
Phyllis Diller	Housework can't kill you, but why take a chance?	105
Aaliyah	I think it's important to take a break, you know, from the public eye for a while, and give people a chance to miss you. I want longevity. I don't want to get out there and run myself ragged and spread myself thin.	105
Boris Johnson	I have as much chance of becoming Prime Minister as of being decapitated by a frisbee or of finding Elvis.	105
Carole King	The downside of videos is that it will put my vision in front of other people, so they might not get the chance to create their own.	105
George Vecsey	The football playoffs feature one-off affairs, without bad feelings building from weekend to weekend. In addition, football uses platoons for offense and defense and kicking, so only the interior linemen have a chance to really get up close and personal with one another.	105
Gisele Bundchen	Some people start modeling because they want to be models and they want the parties and the recognition, and then there are people like me. I come from a simple family, and for me getting into modeling was a chance to make money and create a business.	105
Gustavo Dudamel	We have to go and show these people what classical music is. We say sometimes that classical music has a small audience, but it's because people don't have the chance to be closer to it.	105
Jamie Oliver	The public health of five million children should not be left to luck or chance.	105
Julia Roberts	It's unfortunate that we live in such a panicked, dysmorphic society where women don't even give themselves a chance to see what they'll look like as older persons. I want to have some idea of what I'll look like before I start cleaning the slates.	105
Marlee Matlin	There are so many people, deaf or otherwise abled, who are so talented but overlooked or not given a chance to even get their foot in the door.	105
Mary McLeod Bethune	The drums of Africa still beat in my heart. They will not let me rest while there is a single Negro boy or girl without a chance to prove his worth.	105
Mikhail Baryshnikov	Dances have a second and third life. You feel they are never ready. They always have a chance for another life.	105
Neil Patrick Harris	It's good to have a lot of once-in-a-lifetimes in your lifetime. If you get the chance to skydive, go skydiving. If you're offered a part in a weird Shakespeare play in San Diego, slap on some tights and rock out some iambic pentameter.	105
Pete Rose	If somebody is gracious enough to give me a second chance, I won't need a third.	105
Peter Diamandis	Super-ambitious goals tend to be unifying and energizing to people; but only if they believe there's a chance of success.	105
Pierre Trudeau	Luck, that's when preparation and opportunity meet.	105
Robert Collier	Your chances of success in any undertaking can always be measured by your belief in yourself.	105
Bela Lugosi	I guess I'm pretty much of a lone wolf. I don't say I don't like people at all, but, to tell you the truth, I only like it then if I have a chance to look deep into their hearts and their minds.	105
Bootsy Collins	Usually when I'm out doing stuff, I'm just out in the wild, doing the wild thing. I don't really get a chance to just chill out until I come here, in my creative space.	105
Demi Moore	The thing is most people are afraid to step out, to take a chance beyond their established identity.	105
Fred Brooks	The fundamental problem with program maintenance is that fixing a defect has a substantial chance of introducing another.	105
Geoff Johns	'Forever Evil' is my love letter to DC super villains. It's my chance to take all of the villains I've worked with and all the ones I've never worked with and put them into one gigantic, epic story that will bring together the bads of the DC Universe.	105
James Altucher	Poker is a skill game pretending to be a chance game.	105
Joni Eareckson Tada	I have an interesting perspective on depending on others. I think it gives people a chance to serve. And I'm not so much big on independence, as I am on interdependence. I'm not talking about co-dependency, I'm talking about giving people the opportunity to practicing love with its sleeves rolled up.	105
Julian Baggini	The optimist underestimates how difficult it is to achieve real change, believing that anything is possible and it's possible now. Only by confronting head-on the reality that all progress is going to be obstructed by vested interests and corrupted by human venality can we create realistic programmes that actually have a chance of success.	105
Kim Edwards	Though Lexington is not a small town, it sometimes feels like one, with circles of acquaintance overlapping once, then again; the person you meet by chance at the library or the pool may turn out to be the best friend of your down-the-street neighbor. Maybe that's why people are so friendly here, so willing to be unhurried.	105
Lisa Edelstein	There are some great shows that come and go really fast, either because the network doesn't give them a chance or they just don't grab on to the psyche of the country quickly enough.	105
Michael Tilson Thomas	And at the same time, you are of course a performer, but it's very important that you understand that your role as a performer is to get the best performance from those wonderful colleagues that you have the chance to work with.	105
Peter Ackroyd	It sometimes seems to me that the whole course of English history was one of accident, confusion, chance and unintended consequences - there's no real pattern.	105
Richard Serra	And certainly the history of public sculpture has been disastrous but that doesn't mean it ought not to continue and the only way it even has a chance to continue is if the work gets out into the public.	105
Susan Sarandon	We stand a chance of getting a president who has probably killed more people before he gets into office than any president in the history of the United States.	105
W. G. Sebald	To my mind, it seems clear that those who have no memory have the much greater chance to lead happy lives. But it is something you cannot possibly escape: your psychological make-up is such that you are inclined to look back over your shoulder.	105
William Petty	Wherefore the race being not to the swift, etc. but time and chance happening to all men, I leave the Judgement of the whole to the Candid, of whose correction I shall never be impatient.	105
Bob Barker	Networks decide who will have a chance to do shows, but it is the viewers who make the final decision of who stays and who goes. I am very fortunate, in that the television viewers of our country have decided that Bob Barker can stay.	105
Cat Cora	Even when you have doubts, take that step. Take chances. Mistakes are never a failure - they can be turned into wisdom.	105
Earl Blumenauer	A property in the 100-year floodplain has a 96 percent chance of being flooded in the next hundred years without global warming. The fact that several years go by without a flood does not change that probability.	105
Elisabeth Rohm	I don't think people were betting on me, but they were giving me a chance. I think I rode a wave there, by being different in appearance than the girls who preceded me.	105
Emilie Autumn	Being brave means to know something is scary, difficult, and dangerous, and doing it anyway, because the possibility of winning the fight is worth the chance of losing it.	105
Juicy J	I come from nothing. When I got a chance to make some money, I was like, 'Man, I'm not ever going back.'	105
Kelsey Grammer	I'm an actor and I've created a lasting and memorable character named Frasier, who is not me, but who most people think is. So when I have a chance to play something that's different, I embrace it because it's fun; also in this case, he's a memorable character.	105
Krzysztof Kieslowski	I like chance meetings - life is full of them. Every day, without realising it, I pass people whom I should know.	105
Agnes Obel	When I started working on my own music, I didn't have the chance to record in a big music studio, so I had to record everything myself.	105
Betty Buckley	The work that must be done for each woman to reconnect with her psyche and to give herself a chance to live her own life is essentially the same. The realization of the equality of all races, the equality of all beings is essential.	105
Daniel Baldwin	I believe as a born-again Christian that once you've had a chance to drink from the well, it becomes your responsibility to replenish the well.	105
Gary Ryan Blair	Creative risk taking is essential to success in any goal where the stakes are high. Thoughtless risks are destructive, of course, but perhaps even more wasteful is thoughtless caution which prompts inaction and promotes failure to seize opportunity.	105
James Harden	There are a lot of guys who play in the NBA. There aren't a lot of guys who have a chance to win a gold medal, too.	105
Josh Hartnett	Hope is the most exciting thing in life, and if you honestly believe that love is out there, it will come. And even if it doesn't come straight away, there is still that chance all through your life that it will.	105
Mark Sanchez	The chance of winning a Super Bowl in a city like New York, there's nothing like it. Once you win one, you get that bug to win another one, that edge.	105
Mary Chapin Carpenter	When I think of the artists I admire and seek out musically. It's because I'm curious about where they're going to go the next time they have a chance to put a record out. It's not about where I find them on the radio dial, or how many records they're selling.	105
Maureen Dowd	The guilty pleasure I miss most when I'm out slogging on the campaign trail is the chance to sprawl on the chaise and watch a vacuously spunky and generically sassy chick flick.	105
Rachael Taylor	Falling in love, romance, matters of the heart - when you fall in love, on some biochemical level you know there is a chance it won't work out. It's ingrained in us that if you take such an enormous risk on someone with your heart that it might not pay off. I gamble all my chips and I might actually lose everything.	105
Simon Helberg	I think working for the audience, for me, is the most fun. It's really a chance for something to work towards. It's where everything kind of comes together, and you have to make it work. You have all these people who are sitting there, wanting to have a good time and wanting to laugh. You really have no choice but to pull it out.	105
Richard Ernst	I am not surprised that they show no intention to follow in my footsteps, although if I had a second chance myself, I would certainly try to repeat my present career.	105
Scott Peters	Supporting the entrepreneurial spirit is our best chance for economic progress.	105
Bing Crosby	We'd dub the one that came off best into the final transcription. It gave us a chance to ad lib as much as we wanted, knowing that excess ad libbing could be sliced from the final product.	105
Doug Stanhope	Comedy can always be taken the wrong way. If I do a bit that is meant to diffuse racism or sexism, I'm not going to avoid it on the chance that a small portion of the audience might take it the wrong way.	105
Richard DeVos	If you have a dream, give it a chance to happen.	105
Theodore Roosevelt	Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.	106
Thich Nhat Hanh	When we have peace, then we have a chance to save the planet. But if we are not united in peace, if we do not practice mindful consumption, we cannot save our planet.	106
Andrea Bocelli	My life experience has taught me nothing happens by chance. Even the idea of the ball in a roulette game: it's not chance it ends up in a certain place. It's forces that are at play.	106
Ayrton Senna	Wealthy men can't live in an island that is encircled by poverty. We all breathe the same air. We must give a chance to everyone, at least a basic chance.	106
Bonnie Raitt	Especially girls, but any kids exposed to music programs and arts programs do much better on their tests. They have a better chance of going to college. They can focus better. You know, we're not just automatons learning how to work machines and do engineering and math and science. All of that's great, but you've got to build a whole person.	106
Brad Pitt	Given a chance, I would like to work with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan because she's a versatile actor.	106
Christopher Dodd	Every American deserves to live in freedom, to have his or her privacy respected and a chance to go as far as their ability and effort will take them - regardless of race, gender, ethnicity or economic circumstances.	106
Dwyane Wade	It's about taking advantage of the opportunities you have right now, and right now we're in a position where you call somebody and they're willing to pick up and take the call because they're a fan, you have to take advantage of that and have a chance to capitalize on your ideas.	106
Flip Wilson	The cost of living is going up and the chance of living is going down.	106
Fran Lebowitz	I figure you have the same chance of winning the lottery whether you play or not.	106
Kevin Plank	Randy Edsall is a good, strong, decent man who is working his tail off on behalf of the University of Maryland. And there are more people that want to spend their days burning things down than building it up. At least just stop rooting against him. You know, give the guy a chance.	106
Nancy Pelosi	When I first ran for Congress, I went to my daughter Alexandra, who was going to be a senior in high school, and said: 'I have a chance to run. I may not win, but I'd be gone three nights a week. So, if you want me to stay, I'll be happy to.' And do you know what she said to me? 'Mother, get a life!'	106
Walter Mosley	I've written a lot of really good books. Now we'll see if I can write any more good books. I mean there's a chance I won't, but I'm going to try.	106
William Feather	Most of us regard good luck as our right, and bad luck as a betrayal of that right.	106
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart	One must not make oneself cheap here - that is a cardinal point - or else one is done. Whoever is most impertinent has the best chance.	106
Yoenis Cespedes	I had a chance to play for the Cuban national team during the 2009 World Baseball Classic, but at the time I never thought about leaving Cuba.	106
Cynthia Ozick	In books, as in life, there are no second chances. On second thought: it's the next work, still to be written, that offers the second chance.	106
Daniel Barenboim	Now the first step has to be taken, the step towards democracy. This step is full of risks, and requires trust on all sides. We don't know where it will lead. But if we just stand still, we will have no chance of escaping the violence.	106
Eberhard Weber	When I started to pick up the bass, it was purely by random chance.	106
Erin McKean	For me, conferences are like little mental vacations: a chance to go visit an interesting place for a couple of days, and come back rested and refreshed with new ideas and perspectives.	106
James Cash Penney	Luck is always the last refuge of laziness and incompetence.	106
John Sculley	I have found that I always learn more from my mistakes than from my successes. If you aren't making some mistakes, you aren't taking enough chances.	106
Mary Quant	Risk it; go for it. Life always gives you another chance, another go at it. It's very important to take enormous risks.	106
Namie Amuro	Until now, I've not done a project where the produce, rapper and singer has never worked together like this before, and I had a chance to try a variety of styles.	106
Niki Taylor	I always think about which blood drive was going on in Georgia that day when that husband or mom or school teacher rolled up their sleeve and actually gave me a second chance at life. It's the ultimate gift of life, and I'm the one who was on the other end.	106
Patrick Dempsey	The worst part about being married is when you're not connecting. Your partner is going out the door when you're coming in, and you don't have a chance to debrief on the day. That's the worst.	106
Ross Kemp	Some people figure that if they're part of a gang then they have less of a chance of being killed, because they are in larger numbers. But the problem with this is that it will lead to people doing stuff that they wouldn't usually do.	106
Sebastian Vettel	It was an unbelievable experience! The brakes, the g-forces and the power of the engine are beyond description. Thanks to BMW and WilliamsF1 for giving me this chance to test. The test team looked after me brilliantly and I learnt plenty.	106
Tony La Russa	If you're a coach, and you don't have trust with players, you've got no chance, and your credibility is zero. And that's why it's so important to tell them the truth. If you have something that you're upset about, tell them the truth. If they're doing something wrong, tell them the truth.	106
W. G. Sebald	The moral backbone of literature is about that whole question of memory. To my mind it seems clear that those who have no memory have the much greater chance to lead happy lives.	106
William Gilbert	If you wish in this world to advance your merits you're bound to enhance; You must stir it and stump it, and blow your own trumpet, Or, trust me, you haven't a chance.	106
El DeBarge	I know that I'm here because of the grace of God. But I also know that I've been given this second chance for a specific reason, and that is to bring love to the world again through the voice of my music, and I'm so honored to be able to do it. I'm so blessed that God has chosen me to do that.	106
Jerry Spinelli	Write what you care about. If you do that, you stand the best chance of doing your best writing.	106
Julian Castro	We know that in our free market economy some will prosper more than others. What we don't accept is the idea that some folks won't even get a chance.	106
Kay Hagan	North Carolina is strong because our people are strong. They define our state - by their hard work, commitment to their families and neighbors, their willingness to sacrifice so that their children can have a chance to forge their own path.	106
Laz Alonso	Being able to travel and see the world really makes me appreciate the blessings in my life. There are so many people that will never get a chance to see some of the things that I've seen during my travels. I'll never take that for granted.	106
Maya Rudolph	I never thought I'd get a chance to do what I'm doing. It's such a dream.	106
Pippa Middleton	I certainly have opportunities many can only dream of - but in most ways I'm a typical girl in her 20s trying to forge a career and represent herself in what can sometimes seem rather strange circumstances. One of the most attractive has been the chance to publish 'Celebrate.'	106
Anita Baker	We don't do drugs, drink or use profanity. Instead we instill morals and values in my boys by raising them with a love of God and a love and respect for themselves and all people. I believe they will have a chance.	106
Daniel Snyder	I look at each day as a chance to move one notch above yesterday - whether it's in service quality, delivery, speed, or any other aspect of the business.	106
Regina King	I'm just really thankful to have the chance to portray a character you don't see every day.	106
Sandra Oh	I grew up never seeing myself on-screen, and it's really important to me to give people who look like me a chance to see themselves. I want to see myself as the hero of any story. I want to see myself save the world from the bomb.	106
Sebastiao Salgado	! discovered photography completely by chance. My wife is an architect; when we were young and living in Paris, she bought a camera to take pictures of buildings. For the first time, I looked through a lens - and photography immediately started to invade my life.	106
AnnaLynne McCord	I grew up with not a lot of money and I definitely shopped at Goodwill. But even in my most unfortunate state, I was really blessed compared to a lot of the rest of the world. I had a really great chance to follow my dreams and have them actually come true.	106
Clarence Day	If your parents didn't have any children, there's a good chance that you won't have any.	106
Jonathan Demme	I had very strong feelings, so the chance to make a film that deals in an imaginative way with stuff you care tremendously about is a real high. It's a really amazing thing to be able to do.	106
Leonard Peltier	What Bill Clinton did to us was cruel. The White House gave my attorneys indications that there was a good chance for my clemency to be granted. I had to prepare myself for being released because there was no sign that my petition would be denied.	106
Dave Thomas	I think the harder you work, the more luck you have.	106
Monte Irvin	Oscar Charleston was the Willie Mays of his day. Nobody ever played center field better than Willie Mays. Suppose they had never given Willie a chance, and we said that, would anybody believe there was a kid in Alabama who was that good? Or there was a black guy in Atlanta who might break Babe Ruth's home run record? No.	106
John Baldessari	When I went to art school, I was just having fun. I realised that was the last chance I had, and then I would have to get a job.	106
Charlie Chaplin	All my pictures are built around the idea of getting in trouble and so giving me the chance to be desperately serious in my attempt to appear as a normal little gentleman.	107
George S. Patton	Take calculated risks. That is quite different from being rash.	107
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow	There are moments in life, when the heart is so full of emotion That if by chance it be shaken, or into its depths like a pebble Drops some careless word, it overflows, and its secret, Spilt on the ground like water, can never be gathered together.	107
Bear Grylls	You only get one chance at life and you have to grab it boldly.	107
Alan Shepard	I think all of us certainly believed the statistics which said that probably 88% chance of mission success and maybe 96% chance of survival. And we were willing to take those odds.	107
Andy Rooney	The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.	107
Arnold Palmer	I never quit trying. I never felt that I didn't have a chance to win.	107
Arsene Wenger	If you do not believe you can do it then you have no chance at all.	107
Cate Blanchett	If I had my way, if I was lucky enough, if I could be on the brink my entire life - that great sense of expectation and excitement without the disappointment - that would be the perfect state.	107
Charles Kettering	You will never stub your toe standing still. The faster you go, the more chance there is of stubbing your toe, but the more chance you have of getting somewhere.	107
Christopher Walken	There are people who are able to plan their career, their future, but I've never had any talent for that. I just do things and hope for the best. Say yes, take a chance, and sometimes it's terrific and sometimes it's not.	107
Common	Man, if I get a chance to speak on the microphone, I've got to say something somewhere in there. You know, I'm going to laugh and have fun, too, but something has to be said that has some substance, because this is a platform, and the power that we have with words and with this microphone is phenomenal.	107
Daniel Day-Lewis	At some point in your life, if you're lucky, you get to design the way in which things evolve.	107
Harrison Ford	We all have big changes in our lives that are more or less a second chance.	107
Isabel Lucas	When I was 7, I went to school in Switzerland because everyone on my mom's side of the family lives there. Then we were back in Australia, in Queensland. That's where we had the chance to have lots of different animals. I spent a lot of time living in nature and building cubby houses in big old trees by the ocean.	107
John Madden	You're not going to eliminate concussions. Anytime you hit your head, you have a chance of getting a concussion, in any sport, too. I think we have to learn more about it. Part of it is rules, part of it is equipment, part of it is medical studies, knowing more about the brain.	107
Kevin McCarthy	My belief is you have one chance to make a first impression.	107
Neil Simon	If no one ever took risks, Michaelangelo would have painted the Sistine floor.	107
Nolan Ryan	My job is to give my team a chance to win.	107
Piers Anthony	I have always admired the work of Phil Farmer and was glad for the chance to work with him. Readers today may be too young to remember his classics like The Lovers.	107
Robert H. Schuller	It takes but one positive thought when given a chance to survive and thrive to overpower an entire army of negative thoughts.	107
Thomas Hardy	Some folk want their luck buttered.	107
Yoenis Cespedes	Despite the situation in Cuba, I had a chance to play on the national team; and compared to other baseball players and other people in Cuba, I had the opportunity to live at a level that was not very high class but in the middle.	107
Andy Samberg	I've always felt that if something is polarizing, that's usually the stuff I like the most. If something is taking a chance and is willing to be weird, that's my favorite thing. I know there's somebody out there who hates it.	107
Beatrice Wood	And I think maybe all women, if they just had a chance, would be romantic and believe in love and not sex. And men believe in sex and not love.	107
Bill James	If a candidate for office starts talking about thinning the deer population or investing in barriers to reduce the number of deer on the highways, the other side will probably just ignore him, because they're not going to know what to say about it. But there is a chance that the issue will resonate with voters in an unexpected way.	107
Bob Schieffer	My job is to give everyone a chance to catch their breath and step back from all this and get back to work.	107
Bubba Watson	Everybody can see that my swing is homegrown. That means everybody has a chance to do it.	107
Cheech Marin	If there is one phrase or action that every person on the planet would like to erase from his or her memory or have the chance to undo, it would be, 'Let's do it again.'	107
Constance Baker Motley	I got the chance to argue my first case in Supreme Court, a criminal case arising in Alabama that involved the right of a defendant to counsel at a critical stage in a capital case before a trial.	107
Don Yaeger	As the Olympic torch neared Lake Placid, N.Y., in 1980, signaling the opening of that year's Winter Olympics, newspapers and magazines throughout the world offered predictions on who would win medals in the major sports. Not a single publication gave the American men's hockey team a chance against the world powers.	107
Daniel Barenboim	It's funny, because in 1970 I met the Beatles quite by a chance at a party. It was the Beethoven bicentenary, and I was then also playing the Beethoven Sonatas. And that's all they wanted to hear about - I wanted to talk about them, and all they wanted to talk about was Beethoven.	107
Eugene Cernan	When you head on out to the Moon, in very short order, and you get a chance to look back at the Earth, that horizon slowly curves around in upon himself, and all of sudden you're looking at something that is very strange, but yet is very, very familiar, because you're beginning to see the Earth evolve.	107
Gamal Abdel Nasser	Events are not a matter of chance.	107
Ken Follett	With hindsight, we see that the Soviet Union never had a chance of world domination, but we didn't know that then.	107
Landon Donovan	As athletes, we all have egos, we all think we can help, and when you're not given that chance, it's hard to watch.	107
Lisa Ling	When you take the time to understand why your parents did the things they did, you stand a good chance of learning more about your own behavior.	107
Melinda Gates	But we also believe in taking risks, because that's how you move things along.	107
Moshe Sharett	Even of if a certain backlash is unavoidable, we must make the most of the momentous chance with which history has presented us so swiftly and so unexpectedly.	107
Sebastian Vettel	I don't care what other people think as long as I am happy. The day I die or retire, I have blown all my chances because I don't have the chance any more to change my image as an F1 driver.	107
Toby Keith	I say if you're going to take a chance on something, you just go full balls to the wall.	107
Joe Nichols	I've certainly had to bite my tongue on occasion and live to fight another day, so to speak, on certain things. But when you're new and fresh, you come out and think, 'I don't want to screw my chance up, so I'll go along with what everybody else does.'	107
Josh Homme	I think one of the coolest things you can do is disappear for a while, because it gives you the chance to re-emerge. To sort of pounce out of the jungle.	107
Louis Tomlinson	All my mates are at university, and it's a life I haven't had a chance to enjoy, so it's great to turn up and sample a bit of it.	107
Picabo Street	I want kids to have a chance to dream of becoming something like I did in my life, and when you're living in a home that's dysfunctional and unhealthy that way, you don't dream like that.	107
Rani Mukerji	The one person whom I would like to be is Meryl Streep. Even at her age, she sits alongside the younger heroines at the Oscars with her name in the nominee list, and others around her wonder whether they still stand a chance.	107
Rick Danko	I grew up not far from where Motown was founded, maybe 300 miles from Detroit and I've always liked - I used to like the way they made records. I still do, I just haven't had a chance to hear as much. They used to entertain me.	107
Sela Ward	Which is a wonderful irony, I have property there. I go back every chance I get. One of the main reasons I actually wrote the book, agreed to write it having never wanted to do that in my life, very intimidating by the way to write a book.	107
Tom Udall	Balancing our energy portfolio is a real chance to reduce energy bills, revitalize rural America, slow global warming and strengthen our energy security.	107
Brandi Chastain	Number one, it was a chance to thank my parents, because they passed away a couple of years ago. They gave me so much by giving me the opportunity to play soccer, and I wanted to share the story we had together.	107
Chad Michael Murray	I want to get to a point in my career where I can be a role model. A good one. I want to say, 'I got here without drugs, and I got here without drinking or smoking. If I can do it, you can do it. I have no doubt.' I really want kids to have a chance in life.	107
Jack Dempsey	Nobody owes anybody a living, but everybody is entitled to a chance.	107
Ariel Gore	In all of my looking at happiness, one thing I noticed right away is that the opposite of happiness isn't unhappiness or even depression, it's anxiety. It is something that can constantly block our happiness, or our chance to reach that sort of meditative state in our work or our home lives.	107
Thomas Keating	One of the values of centering prayer is that you are not thinking about God during the time of centering prayer so you are giving God a chance to manifest. In centering prayer there are moments of peace that give the psyche a chance to realize that God may not be so bad after all. God has a chance to be himself for a change.	107
W. Edwards Deming	All anyone asks for is a chance to work with pride.	108
Alan Sugar	Youngsters have got to stop thinking about becoming the next Zuckerberg. It's a trillion-to-one chance. What they need is mater and pater to say, 'Get a job, son.'	108
Chris Hadfield	I've had a chance to fly a lot of different airplanes, but it was nothing like the shuttle ride.	108
Corazon Aquino	I just do whatever it is that I believe I should do, regardless of the risks to my life.	108
Davy Crockett	Fame is like a shaved pig with a greased tail, and it is only after it has slipped through the hands of some thousands, that some fellow, by mere chance, holds on to it!	108
Dwyane Wade	At 9 years old, I moved in with my father because my mother could no longer care for me. Looking back, I now see so many similarities between my own childhood and that of my sons. My father stepped in when I needed him, and that gave me the chance for a better life. That's what I'm doing for my boys now.	108
Eric Schmidt	We used to think that the enterprise was the hardest customer to satisfy, but we were wrong. It turns out, consumers are harder than the enterprise because the consumer will not give you a second chance.	108
Henry James	The right time is any time that one is still so lucky as to have.	108
Lea Michele	I always knew that I wanted to work and I knew I wanted to be a singer and an actor. I knew that every choice I made would help me get to that point. So the better the choices I made, the more of a chance I would have to get to where I wanted to be.	108
Nancy Astor	The first time Adam had a chance, he laid the blame on women.	108
Nhat Hanh	We are looking for happiness and running after it in such a way that creates anger, fear and discrimination. So when you attend a retreat, you have a chance to look at the deep roots of this pollution of the collective energy that is unwholesome.	108
Pauline Hanson	Governments must give to all those who have hit life's hurdles the chance to rebuild and have a future.	108
Rutherford B. Hayes	We are in a period when old questions are settled and the new are not yet brought forward. Extreme party action, if continued in such a time, would ruin the party. Moderation is its only chance. The party out of power gains by all partisan conduct of those in power.	108
Tiger Woods	If you are given a chance to be a role model, I think you should always take it because you can influence a person's life in a positive light, and that's what I want to do. That's what it's all about.	108
Valentino Rossi	Also, when I started racing he knew a lot of people and it was more easy for me to find the first bike, so I have a good chance for sure.	108
Vinnie Jones	I signed schoolboy forms for Watford when I was 12, but then my parents got divorced, and I never kicked a ball for three years. I rebelled, I left home, but getting back into football sorted me out. It was the second chance I needed.	108
Vinoba Bhave	In this world of chance and change and mutability, the fulfillment of any resolve depends on the will of the Lord.	108
Waylon Jennings	Don't ever try and be like anybody else and don't be afraid to take risks.	108
Donald Sutherland	I had a kind of meandering little career, and then I was given a chance to play one of the bottom six in The Dirty Dozen.	108
Greg Brenneman	If you have a chance of working for a healthy company or a sick one, choose the sick one. The sickest ones need the best doctors and it's a lot easier to stand out in a company that needs help.	108
Jesse Owens	One chance is all you need.	108
Kim Edwards	As a writer and as a reader, I really believe in the power of narrative to allow us ways to experience life beyond our own, ways to reflect on things that have happened to us and a chance to engage with the world in ways that transcend time and gender and all sorts of things.	108
Mike Love	I love playing the Hard Rocks; they've got a great stage, great lighting, great sound, and not so humongous; its more intimate, so we love playing theaters and clubs where the audience has a really good chance to see and hear the group and where the acoustics are good. I like it when we can hear what we're doing.	108
Glenn Frey	If you get a chance to be in a film, that's great. One of my goals is to make a record as good as Don Henley's album, Building the Perfect Beast.	108
Jonas Salk	Nothing happens quite by chance. It's a question of accretion of information and experience.	108
Louis Sachar	Every time I start a new novel, it seems like an impossible undertaking. If I tried to do too much too quickly, I would get lost and feel overwhelmed. I have to go slow, and give things a chance to take form and grow.	108
Luis Bunuel	Fortunately, somewhere between chance and mystery lies imagination, the only thing that protects our freedom, despite the fact that people keep trying to reduce it or kill it off altogether.	108
Marya Mannes	For every five well-adjusted and smoothly functioning Americans, there are two who never had the chance to discover themselves. It may well be because they have never been alone with themselves.	108
Benny Green	Just to be around that, to feel a part of it and be able to integrate the experience while I was with the Messengers, of going and playing gigs with other drummers, gave me the chance to realize that it was not just me that was making it happen.	108
David R. Ellis	They do think it is a big summer movie and that's why they want to give it a great chance, but they don't want to go up against Spider-Man 2 or some of the other big movies, the $100 million films that are coming up.	108
Joe Montana	As a quarterback, there's no better way to finish your year, in winning a Super Bowl, than with a touchdown pass. The chances of that happening, by the looks of most of the Super Bowls, is a very rare chance. Fortunately for me, I had an opportunity.	108
Ronnie Milsap	This business is always changing. If you're going to be a leader, you've got to take chances.	108
Shannen Doherty	Everybody deserves a second chance in this world. That's basically all I ask.	108
Tommy Caldwell	I tend to pick objectives that I feel are safe because I know that, in the moment, I always go for it. I have some rules for myself, though: Look for the rock faces without a lot of loose rock. Always rope up on glaciers where there is even a slight chance of falling into a crevasse. No pure free soloing. Never climb below hanging glaciers.	108
Jean Alesi	That was my dream, to drive for Ferrari, but I am not a kid any more. If Ferrari is the best team and if I get the chance to drive for Ferrari, it would be with pleasure.	108
Jim Rohn	If you are not willing to risk the unusual, you will have to settle for the ordinary.	109
Chuck Jones	There's only one test of a great children's book, or a great children's film, and that is this: If it can be read or viewed with pleasure by adults, then it has the chance to be a great children's film, or a great children's book.	109
Joseph Conrad	I don't like work... but I like what is in work - the chance to find yourself. Your own reality - for yourself, not for others - which no other man can ever know.	109
Laura Schlessinger	Children are our second chance to have a great parent-child relationship.	109
Leroy Hood	Medicine will be personalized and preventive: Your genome might predict that you have an 80 percent chance of breast cancer by the time you are 50, but if you take a preventive drug starting when you are 40, the chance will drop to 2 percent.	109
Paula Deen	In order to have good fried chicken, you should wash and season the bird the morning you're preparing it for dinner. Don't wait and do it right before you start cooking. Throw it in the refrigerator, seasoned, that morning, and give it a chance to soak up all the salt and pepper and goodness.	109
Robert Rauschenberg	I think maybe chance works better in a situation like music because music exists over a period of time, and you don't maintain constantly the you can't refer back from one area to another area.	109
Terence	You can take a chance with any man who pays his bills on time.	109
Chris O'Donnell	This almost never happens, but what is really relaxing is just being in this house all by myself, sitting quietly and watching TV. But I basically never get that chance.	109
Earl Weaver	In baseball, you can't kill the clock. You've got to give the other man his chance. That's why this is the greatest game.	109
Hugh Mackay	Perhaps it's the people whose lives have taken sudden new twists - people who have learned to embrace the creative possibilities of change - who stand the best chance of penetrating life's mysteries.	109
Katie Price	When I was growing up, I said I wanted to be a model, but people said I had no chance and when I realized my ambition, people in the business still continued to state negative stuff.	109
Mary Roach	I don't write on topics that require a lot of urgency. But in 'Stiff,' I wanted to change people's hearts about organ donation. Whenever I get a chance, I try to talk about that.	109
Albert Pujols	It's not how you start the season, it's how you finish. If you wind up helping the team make the playoffs, that's what you play for. You don't play to put up your numbers, but to try to get a chance to make it to the World Series.	109
Alex Steffen	What makes creative people tingle are interesting problems, the chance to impress their friends, and caffeine.	109
Charisma Carpenter	There's a pretty good chance that you're going to go down when you're on a motorcycle or if you're sky diving or whatever, but that happened before I even got this job, and I haven't sky dived since.	109
Emerson Fittipaldi	To race Formula three is very high risk and I am not going to take a chance. Thank god I am not doing it!	109
Louis Tomlinson	You can lay in bed and think you don't stand a chance, that's what all of us thought, and here we are. We ended up doing all right.	109
Maurice Ravel	My intention here is to make it clear that not a single cell of my composition, here in regard to The Raven, is found by chance or intuition, that the composition moved towards perfection with the precision and inevitability of a mathematical equation.	109
Michael N. Castle	I think this is one of the greatest strengths of this school. Not only do the students go on to achieve great milestones in their own lives, they never forget their roots and the school that gave them the chance they needed to improve their lives and their families' lives.	109
Peter Criss	I finally got a chance to talk to my daughter from my previous marriage. I just got married May 3 to my beautiful wife, but we don't see each other much.	109
Rahul Dravid	What drew me towards team sport were the camaraderie and friendship. The chance to celebrate victory and success with a group of other people is something I have enjoyed doing.	109
A. R. Ammons	If a poem is each time new, then it is necessarily an act of discovery, a chance taken, a chance that may lead to fulfillment or disaster.	109
Alicia Vikander	My agent in Sweden used to send off interview tapes but I decided to take it upon myself and come to London to visit casting directors which is when things first started taking off for me. I love Sweden but the industry out here is quite small so when I was given the chance to go internationally I took it.	109
Thich Nhat Hanh	When you learn about the teaching and the practice of another tradition, you always have a chance to understand your own teaching and practice.	110
Cher	I've always taken risks, and never worried what the world might really think of me.	110
Chief Joseph	Treat all men alike. Give them the same law. Give them an even chance to live and grow.	110
Jack Nicholson	If men are honest, everything they do and everywhere they go is for a chance to see women.	110
Kevin Costner	I haven't lived a perfect life. I have regrets. But that's from a lifetime of taking chances, making decisions, and trying not to be frozen. The only thing that I can do with my regrets is understand them.	110
Ludwig Mies van der Rohe	Education must lead us from the irresponsible opinion to true responsible judgment. It must lead us from chance and arbitrariness to rational clarity and intellectual order. Therefore, let us guide our students over the road of discipline from materials, through function, to creative work.	110
Naomi Wolf	After we were hit on September 11, 2001, we were in a state of national shock. Less than six weeks later, on October 26 2001, the U.S.A. Patriot Act was passed by a Congress that had little chance to debate it; many said that they scarcely had time to read it.	110
Nicolas Cage	I think it's no secret that I've tried to take chances in my career and also in my life, and I believe to not live in fear.	110
Octavia Butler	I had a long period of writing what I think of as 'save the world' novels. 'Fledgling' was a chance to play.	110
Peter De Vries	The satirist shoots to kill while the humorist brings his prey back alive and eventually releases him again for another chance.	110
Peter Diamandis	If someone is always to blame, if every time something goes wrong someone has to be punished, people quickly stop taking risks. Without risks, there can't be breakthroughs.	110
Reba McEntire	Easter is very important to me, it's a second chance.	110
Roger Staubach	In racing, we have a better chance of it happening quicker because we have attracted good people to come to work for us. It's the beginning of a great adventure, and we're looking forward to it.	110
Slash	As for Guns N' Roses, I don't think there's ever a chance of a reunion.	110
William Hurt	Great risks come in long term, tremendously assiduous, very courageous study.	110
Drew Brees	It took me six months to redeem myself at least to have another chance to at least have her get to know me and let her know I was at least a decent guy and to give me a shot. And here we are, we've been married seven years.	110
Duane G. Carey	So, whenever Scooter was the Pilot, he never had a chance to fly the orbiter. So, the joke is: I'm going to have a chance to fly it first and hand it over to him.	110
Gary Lineker	You've got no chance of reaching the top if you're just playing for money.	110
Joni Eareckson Tada	Well, painting is the one thing I do, that is just me. It's me and easels, and the pencils. And as long as I don't drool too much over the canvas, the colors come out pretty good. And it's a chance to express all that I've got inside, that I sometimes keep hidden. And I think that's why I paint big broad, wide open landscapes.	110
Patricia Ireland	Some campaigns are not worth waging if you can't win; others have to be fought on grounds of principle regardless of the chances for success.	110
Preity Zinta	Luck always favours the brave. And you must remember that brave are the people who follow their heart; brave are the people who take chances in life. Which also means you have to say no sometimes. I believe the power of no is greater than yes.	110
Roger Penrose	There is a certain sense in which I would say the universe has a purpose. It's not there by chance.	110
Aubrey de Grey	There is no difference between saving lives and extending lives, because in both cases we are giving people the chance of more life.	110
George Brett	If I stay healthy, I have a chance to collect 3,000 hits and 1,000 errors.	110
John Sununu	After everyone has had a chance to bluster, posture, and pontificate, we are left with one basic question: under any foreseeable circumstance, would it be in our national interest to default on our debt? The answer is unequivocally no.	110
Richard Cobden	Luck relies on chance, labor on character.	110
Shreya Ghoshal	If given a chance, I would really want to explore the monuments in Delhi, like Qutub Minar and the forts. I have been there as a child, but now I want to go back and understand the history and significance behind them. We take all of these things for granted in life.	110
Theophile Gautier	Chance is the pseudonym of God when he did not want to sign.	110
Jan Koum	There were a lot of negatives, of course, but there were positives to living a life unfettered by possessions. It gave us the chance to focus on education, which was very important in the Soviet Union.	110
Michael Connelly	What is overriding that and most important is that readers generally are interested in a good character. They might be more comfortable with Harry because they think they know him, but they always seem willing to give somebody new a chance.	110
Mark Sheppard	I can go to a movie theater and watch a movie I was in with an audience... but with television, the opportunity to meet the fans at Comic Con or any other situation, it's a chance to enter that circle; it's that sharing.	110
Joe Sakic	Obviously there are not too many people who get a chance to play in the Olympics in their hometown. That would be something special, but going into the summer you have to be realistic with yourself, and health-wise and motivation-wise you have to be willing to do what it takes.	110
Aldous Huxley	A child-like man is not a man whose development has been arrested; on the contrary, he is a man who has given himself a chance of continuing to develop long after most adults have muffled themselves in the cocoon of middle-aged habit and convention.	111
Ben Stiller	I love New York. I was sad, depressed and incredibly moved by our fellow countrymen and what they've done. I wanted to give people a chance to see something funny, have a distraction.	111
Brandy Norwood	When you get a chance to step back, you notice all these great things you've done and all these great people that you've worked with.	111
Cornel West	Hey, you got something going here. I think we've got a chance for some progressive policy that actually focuses on poor and working people.	111
Debbie Wasserman Schultz	I have to admit, like so many women, I always knew there was a chance. But like so many women, I never thought it would be me. I never thought I'd hear those devastating words: 'You have breast cancer.'	111
Democritus	Everything existing in the universe is the fruit of chance and necessity.	111
Dick Cavett	If your parents never had children, chances are you won't either.	111
Harold Wilson	Everybody should have an equal chance - but they shouldn't have a flying start.	111
Harvey Fierstein	The great thing about suicide is that it's not one of those things you have to do now or you lose your chance. I mean, you can always do it later.	111
Joel Salatin	There's a short chain between field and fork, and the shorter that chain is - the fresher, the more transparent that system is - the less chance there is of anything from bio-terrorism to pathogenicity to spoilage.	111
Magic Johnson	I'm the one who will take chances, not worry about the backlash.	111
Ovid	Luck affects everything. Let your hook always be cast; in the stream where you least expect it there will be a fish.	111
Stanley Kubrick	Any time you take a chance you better be sure the rewards are worth the risk because they can put you away just as fast for a ten dollar heist as they can for a million dollar job.	111
Ed Markey	The Christians had a better chance against the lions than the American consumer has against the OPEC cartel.	111
James D. Watson	Spotting a rare bird is never worth the bite of a cur. Once bitten by a German shepherd, I knew that I preferred cats, even if they are bird-killers. Life is long enough for more than one chance at a rare bird.	111
Jessamyn West	Only a fool would refuse to enter a fool's paradise when that's the only paradise he'll ever have a chance to enter.	111
Matt Taibbi	In modern American politics, being the right kind of ignorant and entertainingly crazy is like having a big right hand in boxing; you've always got a puncher's chance.	111
Rory McIlroy	My mom and dad worked very hard to give me the best chance in - not just in golf but in life. You know, I was an only child, you know, my dad worked three jobs at one stage. My mom worked night shifts in a factory.	111
Wayne Newton	I love taking chances.	111
George Steinbrenner	Don't talk to me about aesthetics or tradition. Talk to me about what sells and what's good right now. And what the American people like is to think the underdog still has a chance.	111
John Roberts	There is no better gift a society can give children than the opportunity to grow up safe and free - the chance to pursue whatever dreams they may have.	111
Max Eastman	Classic art was the art of necessity: modern romantic art bears the stamp of caprice and chance.	111
Sanford I. Weill	The more we can do to create a better society, that benefits more people, the better chance we have that our society will continue to grow and prosper.	111
Meg Cabot	If you're writing a screenplay, you need to be prepared to let go: there's a good chance the words you write aren't going to be the ones that end up on screen.	111
Malcolm Fraser	Sorry Day falls on the eve of Reconciliation Week, giving us the chance to ask whether we are making progress in the wider challenge of reconciling Indigenous and other Australians.	111
Alexander Woollcott	It comes from the likes of you! Take what you can get! Grab the chances as they come along! Act in hallways! Sing in doorways! Dance in cellars!	111
Carl Sagan	Personally, I would be delighted if there were a life after death, especially if it permitted me to continue to learn about this world and others, if it gave me a chance to discover how history turns out.	112
Michelle Obama	If proud Americans can be who they are and boldly stand at the altar with who they love then surely, surely we can give everyone in this country a fair chance at that great American Dream.	112
Vivienne Westwood	I think dress, hairstyle and make-up are the crucial factors in projecting an attractive persona and give one the chance to enhance one's best physical features.	112
Bernie Mac	When I get a chance to play golf or go on a boat with good people, take the boat out and put some lobsters on the grill, get the ice-cold beer and the cigars - that's heaven here on earth.	112
Denis Leary	My biggest regret in life is that I didn't hit John Denver in the mouth while I has the chance.	112
Eric Ries	There is much that public policy can do to support American entrepreneurs. Health insurance reform will make it easier for entrepreneurs to take a chance on a new business without putting their family's health at risk. Tort reform will make it easier to take prudent risks on new products in a number of sectors.	112
Garrison Keillor	Thank you, dear God, for this good life and forgive us if we do not love it enough. Thank you for the rain. And for the chance to wake up in three hours and go fishing: I thank you for that now, because I won't feel so thankful then.	112
Hugh Hefner	You know, from my point of view, I'm the luckiest cat on the planet.	112
Iqbal Quadir	I'm motivated by creating a level playing field for the world so that the weak have a chance.	112
Jerry Rice	Monday Night Football. That was everything to me because you get a chance to show everybody what you're capable of. It's only two teams on that Monday night.	112
Kevin James	Teachers have a chance to mold someone, inspire them. I hope all teachers realize that.	112
Kit Harington	I'm kind of a horse whisperer; I don't know what it is. I'm not great on a horse. I'm getting better, but I'm not brilliant. So yeah, I've spent a lot of time with horses. They're great creatures; I love them. I do love riding them when I get the chance to.	112
Nick Nolte	Birth is violent, and out of that violence is our only chance of rebirth.	112
Peter Dinklage	Any swagger is just defense. When you're reminded so much of who you are by people - not a fame thing, but with my size, constantly, growing up - you just either curl up in a corner in the dark or you wear it proudly, like armor or something. You can turn it on its head and use it yourself before anybody else gets a chance.	112
Thomas J. Watson	Every time we've moved ahead in IBM, it was because someone was willing to take a chance, put his head on the block, and try something new.	112
Walter Scott	One hour of life, crowded to the full with glorious action, and filled with noble risks, is worth whole years of those mean observances of paltry decorum, in which men steal through existence, like sluggish waters through a marsh, without either honor or observation.	112
Georgina Chapman	What an amazing opportunity to do something like direct a movie and step out of your creative comfort zone and yet do something that is also so familiar at the same time. I was also just excited to have the chance to direct, which I may never get to do again.	112
Steve Spurrier	But at some point, we've got to have disciplined play and have got to coach better. I'm not putting it on the players. We've got to coach them to tackle and block better. It's as simple as that. If we can do those things, we'll have a chance.	112
Suge Knight	In prison, you get the chance to see who really loves you.	112
Alan Shearer	Somewhere along the line you've got to do your apprenticeship. But I'd want half a chance of being successful at it.	112
Anne McCaffrey	I did not have a chance to write novels until my youngest child started school fulltime.	112
Edward Furlong	Detroit was kind of a random thing where it was like a chance to be in a rock 'n' roll movie.	112
John Burnside	This is a truth that should be repeated like a mantra: to have any chance of a ful - filling life, we require not only clean air and a steady climate, but also an abundance of meadows and woodlands, rivers and oceans, teeming with life and the mass existence of other living creatures.	112
Jordan Spieth	I've told myself I have a chance to make history, and that's my focus.	112
Lois Capps	National Osteoporosis Awareness and Prevention Month is celebrated each May, and becomes a chance for our Nation to become more familiar with the effects of this disease, and about the preventable steps that we can take to deal with it.	112
Arthur Schopenhauer	Every possession and every happiness is but lent by chance for an uncertain time, and may therefore be demanded back the next hour.	113
Frank Sinatra	People often remark that I'm pretty lucky. Luck is only important in so far as getting the chance to sell yourself at the right moment. After that, you've got to have talent and know how to use it.	113
Jacques Derrida	The circle of the return to birth can only remain open, but this is a chance, a sign of life, and a wound.	113
Calvin Coolidge	Those who trust to chance must abide by the results of chance.	113
Chance The Rapper	'Chance the Rapper' is many things. I'm constantly evolving.	113
Danny Meyer	Short of hiring a new staff, consider giving subpar workers a chance to improve. Tell them why they're not measuring up and give them a set amount of time to make specific improvements.	113
Elizabeth Warren	Americans are fighters. We're tough, resourceful and creative, and if we have the chance to fight on a level playing field, where everyone pays a fair share and everyone has a real shot, then no one - no one can stop us.	113
Gordon Parks	But I was very disappointed that I didn't get a chance to go overseas with that group, might not have gotten back but I wanted very much to go because there's not much of a record of the exploits of the first Negro fighter group.	113
Mario Lemieux	I'm only 35, and I felt that the time was right to try to come back and have a chance for him to see me play.	113
Mel Brooks	Rhetoric does not get you anywhere, because Hitler and Mussolini are just as good at rhetoric. But if you can bring these people down with comedy, they stand no chance.	113
Mignon McLaughlin	For the happiest life, days should be rigorously planned, nights left open to chance.	113
Neale Donald Walsch	A life lived of choice is a life of conscious action. A life lived of chance is a life of unconscious creation.	113
Paul Harvey	If there is a 50-50 chance that something can go wrong, then 9 times out of ten it will.	113
Paula Radcliffe	I am not driven by any bitterness by what happened in Athens. I learnt a lot of lessons from it and probably came through it a stronger person in the end. There have been a lot of near misses, and that's taught me to keep persevering and that there is a chance it can come right.	113
Peter Benchley	If we choose to walk into a forest where a tiger lives, we are taking a chance. If we swim in a river where crocodiles live, we are taking a chance. If we visit the desert or climb a mountain or enter a swamp where snakes have managed to survive, we are taking a chance.	113
Thor Heyerdahl	But if we begin thinking about the world being over 100 million years old, then it's absolutely by chance that you and I are sitting here alive today, while all the others are dead or have never been born.	113
Tony Blair	Anywhere, anytime ordinary people are given the chance to choose, the choice is the same: freedom, not tyranny; democracy, not dictatorship; the rule of law, not the rule of the secret police.	113
Yitzhak Rabin	Give peace a chance.	113
Barry Sanders	I quit because I didn't feel like the Detroit Lions had a chance to win. It just killed my enjoyment of the game.	113
S. E. Hinton	How a piece ends is very important to me. It's the last chance to leave an impression with the reader, the last shot at 'nailing' it. I love to write ending lines; usually, I know them first and write toward them, but if I knew how they came to me, I wouldn't tell.	113
Ron Kind	We can all be proud of our men and women in the military who are following their orders, carrying out their missions and sacrificing so much to give the Iraqi people a chance for a more peaceful and prosperous future.	113
Shaun Alexander	You know when everyone's watching, your mom and dad, your friends in high school who thought they were better than you. You get your chance to get in the spotlight and shine.	113
Ahmed Chalabi	And we are grateful to the American young men and women who are risking their lives to give the Iraqi people this chance, this dream of democracy in Iraq now.	113
Bruce Springsteen	When it comes to luck, you make your own.	114
Queen Elizabeth II	I hope that tomorrow we can all, wherever we are, join in expressing our grief at Diana's loss, and gratitude for her all-too-short life. It is a chance to show to the whole world the British nation united in grief and respect.	114
Saint Ignatius	The more completely we focus our attention on our Creator and Lord, the less chance there is of our being distracted by creatures.	114
Bill Murray	When the phone started ringing too many times, I had to take it back to what I can handle. I take my chances on a job or a person as opposed to a situation. I don't like to have a situation placed over my head.	114
Conan O'Brien	According to a new survey, 40 percent of adults in Mexico say they would move to the United States if they got a chance. The number would have been higher, but the other 60 percent already live here.	114
Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton	There is no such thing as luck. It's a fancy name for being always at our duty, and so sure to be ready when good time comes.	114
Gil Scott-Heron	I have a novel that I can write. It's about three soldiers from Somalia. Some babies have been disappearing up on 144th Street, and I speculate later on what happened to them and how they might have been got back. These guys are dead, all three, and they have a chance in the afterlife to do something they should have done when they were alive.	114
Rick Perry	I think Barack Obama is a socialist. I think he cares for his country - don't get me wrong about that - but I think he truly misunderstands what this country was based upon, the values that America was based upon, which was free enterprise and having the ability to risk your capital and having a chance to have a return on your investment.	114
Ronda Rousey	The Olympics is a once-in-a-lifetime thing. I was lucky enough to go twice, but most people only get one chance. And in judo you can train your whole life and it'll come down to a split second: You can lose everything or win anything.	114
Bella Thorne	My big break was becoming the spokesperson for Texas Instruments. Casting directors really started giving me a chance to read for projects.	114
Beverly Cleary	With twins, reading aloud to them was the only chance I could get to sit down. I read them picture books until they were reading on their own.	114
James Lovelock	We'd never have got a chance to go outside and look at the earth if it hadn't been for space exploration and NASA.	114
Leo Durocher	As long as I've got a chance to beat you I'm going to take it.	114
Tyson Chandler	I play knowing that there is somebody watching me out there in the crowd that has never had the opportunity to watch a game before and it might be the only chance they ever to see one, live in person. Michael Jordan once said that in an interview, and I really took it to heart; whenever I step on the floor, I play for that person.	114
James Harden	Being named as a finalist for the USA Basketball National Team is an unbelievable feeling and an opportunity that is truly humbling. It is an honor to be included with such talented players and I look forward to the chance to represent my country this summer.	114
Jay Inslee	I am excited about focusing full-time on talking about my job-creation agenda and building a new economy for Washington state. We have a great chance to seize our own destiny, build our own industries, and create our own technological revolutions right here at home.	114
F. Scott Fitzgerald	Nothing is as obnoxious as other people's luck.	115
Anne Rice	First-person narrators is the way I know how to write a book with the greatest power and chance of artistic success.	115
Bobby Scott	Giving a 10-year mandatory minimum for a second offense fist fight is not going to reduce the chance that someone will be stabbed 16 times when you are not funding any of the programs that are desperately needed to actually reduce juvenile crime.	115
Brie Larson	I love mythology and folklore, and I respect the time, money, and opportunity that a film gives to an audience. It's a chance to empathize, reflect, and learn, so I really want to understand before I sign onto a project: 'What's the potential of this thing? What are we seeing and learning? What are we empathizing to?'	115
Charles Kettering	Keep on going and the chances are you will stumble on something, perhaps when you are least expecting it. I have never heard of anyone stumbling on something sitting down.	115
David Blunkett	I'm a great aficionado of history. I was deeply affected by seeing the disintegration of any chance of democracy coping with fascism in the Weimar republic, where woolly-minded, well-meaning liberalism actually allowed the forces of darkness to use democracy, to exploit democracy, to overturn democracy.	115
Ella Wheeler Wilcox	There is no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can circumvent or hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul.	115
Hunter Hayes	I am grateful I got the chance to meet Stevie Wonder! He's like royalty to me and is one of my biggest inspirations.	115
Margaret Fuller	It should be remarked that, as the principle of liberty is better understood, and more nobly interpreted, a broader protest is made in behalf of women. As men become aware that few have had a fair chance, they are inclined to say that no women have had a fair chance.	115
Norman Ralph Augustine	If a sufficient number of management layers are superimposed on top of each other, it can be assured that disaster is not left to chance.	115
Novak Djokovic	And when I was saying I want to become number one of the world and I was 7, 8 years old, most of the people were laughing to me. Because you know, it seemed like I have one percent chances to do that. And I've done it.	115
Tacitus	Valor is of no service, chance rules all, and the bravest often fall by the hands of cowards.	115
Alain Prost	Sometimes I think I could have got some better results if I had a different mentality; if I could have pushed hard and attacked. But then I would have had a good chance of making a mistake.	115
Ann Richards	Now we Democrats believe that America is still the country of fair play, that we can come out of a small town or a poor neighborhood and have the same chance as anyone else, and it doesn't matter whether we are black or Hispanic, or disabled or women.	115
Arianna Huffington	Increasingly, staying in the middle class - let alone aspiring to become middle class - is becoming a game of chance.	115
Eva Longoria	Everybody needs a chance to find love.	115
Gene Robinson	Sometimes there are things worth risking your life for. It was Jesus who said if you want to save your life, you have to lose it.	115
Jeffrey Archer	I spent my first three weeks there on a wing with 21 murderers. I met some very evil people there but also some men who'd had no upbringing, no chance in life.	115
John Elway	You always want to have good balance. That's the key to winning a Super Bowl. You look at the teams who have won championships, you got to have balance. So, to be able to run the ball effectively and throw the ball effectively is what gives you the chance to win a world championship.	115
Matthew Gray Gubler	My best advice to actors is if you love acting, do it every chance you get. Success does not mean success. All that matters is whether or not you're doing your best to entertain. The way this business works is all about luck and timing.	115
Andrew Jackson	I've got big shoes to fill. This is my chance to do something. I have to seize the moment.	116
Henry A. Kissinger	No foreign policy - no matter how ingenious - has any chance of success if it is born in the minds of a few and carried in the hearts of none.	116
Paulo Coelho	You have to take risks. We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen.	116
Blake Lively	I really don't like the gym. I like experiences, so I take any chance I get to go on a bicycle or on a hike.	116
Cam Newton	Most of the time, I don't really give people a chance. I have a wall up. I'm always protecting who I am. Thinking about my brand. I make it hard on people. Sometimes, it's a good thing. Sometimes, it's a bad thing.	116
Clayton Christensen	Whenever we have thanked these men and women for what they have done for us, without exception they have expressed gratitude for having the chance to help - because they grew as they served.	116
Geoffrey Canada	You grow up in America and you're told from day one, 'This is the land of opportunity.' That everybody has an equal chance to make it in this country. And then you look at places like Harlem, and you say, 'That is absolutely a lie.'	116
Helen Rowland	Nowadays love is a matter of chance, matrimony a matter of money and divorce a matter of course.	116
Italo Calvino	The Classics are those books which constitute a treasured experience for those who have read and loved them; but they remain just as rich an experience for those who reserve the chance to read them for when they are in the best condition to enjoy them.	116
Kevin Costner	We stand our best chance of leaving a legacy to those who want to learn, our children, by standing firm. In matters of style, hey, swing with the stream. But in matters of principle, you need to stand like a rock.	116
Nat King Cole	The Supreme Court is having a hard time integrating schools. What chance do I have to integrate audiences?	116
Sam Walton	If everybody is doing it one way, there's a good chance you can find your niche by going exactly in the opposite direction.	116
Steven Seagal	For me, if God blessed me with that one great hit, I'm satisfied. But I've still got a lot in me, and I'd still like to get out there and tell a lot more stories cinematically. And God willing, I'll get the chance to do that.	116
Tom Clancy	In battle, you forgive a man anything except an unwillingness to take risks. Sometimes you have to put it on the line.	116
Tyler Cowen	We're seeing an enormous amount of global upward mobility that's quite rapid and quite sudden, and undiscovered individuals have a chance - using the Internet, using computers - to prove themselves very quickly. So I think the mobility story will be a quite complicated one.	116
Vince Cable	When my job was attempting to predict future economic developments for the Shell oil company, I was frequently reminded of an Arabic saying: 'Those who claim to foresee the future are lying, even if by chance they are later proved right.'	116
Wanda Sykes	I'm here today because I refused to be unhappy. I took a chance.	116
Christine Pelosi	The beauty of our democracy lies in the American value of equality: if you vote, you have a seat at the table. If you speak, you have a chance to persuade others. A billionaire and a minimum wage earner have the same power at the ballot box.	116
Mary Douglas	Behind a leader there must be followers, but they should always be on the lookout for the main chance and ready to change sides if the current leader doesn't deliver.	116
Aung San Suu Kyi	I've always tried to explain democracy is not perfect. But it gives you a chance to shape your own destiny.	117
Marcel Proust	We are able to find everything in our memory, which is like a dispensary or chemical laboratory in which chance steers our hand sometimes to a soothing drug and sometimes to a dangerous poison.	117
Ai Weiwei	I call on people to be 'obsessed citizens,' forever questioning and asking for accountability. That's the only chance we have today of a healthy and happy life.	117
Al Pacino	When I was younger, I would go to auditions to have the opportunity to audition, which would mean another chance to get up there and try out my stuff, or try out what I learned and see how it worked with an audience, because where are you gonna get an audience?	117
Christopher Morley	From now until the end of time no one else will ever see life with my eyes, and I mean to make the best of my chance.	117
Chuck Close	Every child should have a chance to feel special.	117
Douglas Horton	Desperation is like stealing from the Mafia: you stand a good chance of attracting the wrong attention.	117
Elizabeth Gilbert	Here's the thing: the unit of reverence in Europe is the family, which is why a child born today of unmarried parents in Sweden has a better chance of growing up in a house with both of his parents than a child born to a married couple in America. Here we revere the couple, there they revere the family.	117
Friedrich Schiller	There is no such thing as chance; and what seem to us merest accident springs from the deepest source of destiny.	117
H. G. Wells	While there is a chance of the world getting through its troubles, I hold that a reasonable man has to behave as though he were sure of it. If at the end your cheerfulness in not justified, at any rate you will have been cheerful.	117
Havelock Ellis	However well organized the foundations of life may be, life must always be full of risks.	117
Paul Keating	You get one chance to do something about native title. You get perhaps one chance in your life to do something about a republic. You get one chance, your chance, to build a piece of the political architecture in the Pacific. I wasn't going to give those up.	117
Penn Jillette	If you like the stuff I do, my chances of liking you go up.	117
Robert Fulghum	I fear the boredom that comes with not learning and not taking chances.	117
Samuel Goldwyn	I think luck is the sense to recognize an opportunity and the ability to take advantage of it... The man who can smile at his breaks and grab his chances gets on.	117
Terence	How often things occur by mere chance which we dared not even hope for.	117
Tom Peters	Everyone has a chance to learn, improve, and build up their skills.	117
Werner Herzog	I prefer to be alive, so I'm cautious about taking risks.	117
Yayoi Kusama	New York is the place that made my and other artists' dreams come true by giving us a chance to realise our ideas and concepts. It was a great place for making a presentation of artistic creation.	117
Brittany Murphy	I never had a chance to learn how to drive.	117
Chad Hurley	The power of digital distribution over physical retail outlets is you have a chance to create a global audience.	117
Dale Carnegie	Take a chance! All life is a chance. The man who goes farthest is generally the one who is willing to do and dare.	118
Isaac Bashevis Singer	If you keep on saying things are going to be bad, you have a good chance of being a prophet.	118
Al Sharpton	There's no reason why children in inner cities or rural areas do not receive the same quality education or opportunities as those in suburbs or wealthy neighborhoods. If we truly believe in giving all citizens a chance to pursue happiness and pursue their goals, then we cannot continue to marginalize entire groups of people.	118
Blake Lively	Christmas for me is all about spending time with my family. I cherish any chance we have to spend all day together making gingerbread houses, baking cookies, or sitting around and watching movies.	118
Eliot Spitzer	From those to whom much is given, much is expected. I have been given much - the love of my family, the faith and trust of the people of New York, and the chance to lead this state. I am deeply sorry that I did not live up to what was expected of me.	118
Jack Ma	The lessons I learned from the dark days at Alibaba are that you've got to make your team have value, innovation, and vision. Also, if you don't give up, you still have a chance. And, when you are small, you have to be very focused and rely on your brain, not your strength.	118
Peyton Manning	When you take a year off from football, you come back for all the enjoyable moments. When you're not playing, you miss out on all the highs, but you also miss these disappointments. But I would rather be in the arena to be excited or be disappointed than not have a chance at all. That's football. That's why everybody plays it.	118
Ricky Williams	The more I pay attention to what's going on inside, the more I realize that how I feel, and how I react to what I feel, really creates my reality. And the more in touch I can be, the better chance I have to control what's happening in my life.	118
Cyndi Lauper	I lucked out when I started to sing. I'd already experienced failing at everything else.	118
Lafcadio Hearn	Is woman a religion? Well, perhaps you will have the chance of judging for yourselves if you go to America. There you will find men treating women with just the same respect formerly accorded only to religious dignitaries or to great nobles.	118
Sara Blakely	I've always had that gratitude that I had the opportunity to pursue my potential. So I think my story says that, when women are given the chance and the opportunity, that we can achieve a lot. We deliver. We can make the world a better place, one butt at a time.	118
Mithun Chakraborty	Film line is all about chance. I don't think much, I just like to take chances.	118
Dave Barry	Newspaper readership is declining like crazy. In fact, there's a good chance that nobody is reading my column.	119
B. C. Forbes	The man who is intent on making the most of his opportunities is too busy to bother about luck.	119
Billie Holiday	I never had a chance to play with dolls like other kids. I started working when I was six years old.	119
Brandy Norwood	So when you get a chance to look at things and chill and relax, it makes you want it more, and that's why I'm so happy to be back!	119
Charles B. Rangel	I am a firm believer that upon release, ex-offenders should be afforded a second chance to become productive citizens by providing rehabilitation and education that will help them join the workforce.	119
Dianne Feinstein	We have a chance to wind down and expedite the removal of 96 percent of the world's nuclear weapons. What an achievement it would be, if at the end of the next administration, we could say that the nuclear arsenals of both Russia and the United States had been reduced to the barest minimums.	119
Henry Van Dyke	Be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love, to work, to play, and to look up at the stars.	119
Lewis Thomas	Very few recognize science as the high adventure it really is, the wildest of all explorations ever taken by human beings, the chance to glimpse things never seen before, the shrewdest maneuver for discovering how the world works.	119
Mark Ruffalo	I'd never taken a job purely for money - I felt that would kill me - but I was afraid that I was heading that way. Then, my brother passing away was the final thing that kicked me over. It reminded me that life is short, and you'd better do what you want while you have a chance.	119
Mike Birbiglia	As a comedian, you want people to like you. That's part of why you're there in the first place: You have this unquenchable need to be liked, and then when you divert from that and take a chance at doing something that has moments of fierce unlikeability, you can hit some real low points.	119
Tony McCoy	When I started off riding, you dream about being champion jockey. Then I wanted to be champion jockey again. Then I wanted to ride 200 winners in a season. Then, when there was a chance of riding more winners than Richard Dunwoody, that was my goal.	119
Victoria Wood	Well, I think there's not much of a chance for me finding somebody of my age. Gentlemen of my age are dropping down 30 years to find girlfriends.	119
V. S. Naipaul	What I felt was, if you spend your life just writing fiction, you are going to falsify your material. And the fictional form was going to force you to do things with the material, to dramatize it in a certain way. I thought nonfiction gave one a chance to explore the world, the other world, the world that one didn't know fully.	119
Yuvraj Singh	When I was a kid, I used to try and hit every ball out of the ground. After playing one-day cricket and Test cricket, I never thought I'd get a chance to play like that again, ever. Twenty20 has given me the opportunity of playing like a kid again. I can just feel free and go out there and hit.	119
James Surowiecki	The history of the Internet is, in part, a series of opportunities missed: the major record labels let Apple take over the digital-music business; Blockbuster refused to buy Netflix for a mere fifty million dollars; Excite turned down the chance to acquire Google for less than a million dollars.	119
Richard Linklater	It's luck that one thing works out and one doesn't, it's sort of happenstance.	119
Sarah Parcak	Looting has an immense impact on our ability to understand our global cultural heritage; once these objects are gone, so too is our chance of piecing together humanity's shared story.	119
Steven Curtis Chapman	I enjoy being on stage with other artists. I have a chance to watch and see people responding to the other artists songs. I get to see how people are affected by the music.	119
Arnold Palmer	I've always made a total effort, even when the odds seemed entirely against me. I never quit trying; I never felt that I didn't have a chance to win.	120
Bill Parcells	You as an individual coach have a responsibility to try to give those players who put themselves at risk and in harm's way a chance to achieve success, and that goes for universities and professional teams, as well.	120
Kevin O'Leary	I could have easily gone down the wrong path and dropped out of school, but I was given a second chance.	120
Margaret J. Wheatley	Determination, energy, and courage appear spontaneously when we care deeply about something. We take risks that are unimaginable in any other context.	120
Pete Wentz	There are bands that I got into when I was 15, when I was mad at my dad and just wanted to be different. I don't think I'd give those bands half a chance now. But I hold some kind of nostalgia for them that I won't let go. Bands like Minor Threat and Black Flag.	120
Rowan Williams	St Paul, in his second letter to Corinth, spells this out further in the important eighth and ninth chapters, where he urges some of the Christian communities to be generous to others so that they may also have the chance to be generous in return.	120
Ryan Lochte	It's not like I'm looking for a blonde or a brunette, light-skinned or dark-skinned. I feel like I give any girl a fighting chance.	120
Willie Stargell	To be successful, one must take chances.	120
Gordon Getty	I just have to take my chances like any other composer.	120
Sania Mirza	Tennis is a funny game, and it takes a life-time of keeping one's eyes open on the circuit to have any chance of understanding the strange phenomena that exist in our exciting sport!	120
Anais Nin	I postpone death by living, by suffering, by error, by risking, by giving, by losing.	121
John Lennon	All we are saying is give peace a chance.	121
Bette Davis	To fulfill a dream, to be allowed to sweat over lonely labor, to be given a chance to create, is the meat and potatoes of life. The money is the gravy.	121
Brad Paisley	I'm aware of the fact that a lot of talented people out there will never get this chance.	121
George Lucas	Good luck has its storms.	121
Nhat Hanh	We have the tendency to run away from suffering and to look for happiness. But, in fact, if you have not suffered, you have no chance to experience real happiness.	121
Niels Bohr	We are all agreed that your theory is crazy. The question which divides us is whether it is crazy enough to have a chance of being correct. My own feeling is that it is not crazy enough.	121
Robert Rauschenberg	The only thing that I could get with chance, and I never was able to use it, was that I would end up with something quite geometric or the spirit that I was interested in, indulging in, was gone.	121
Leonard Mlodinow	Intentionality and talent always matter. An extraordinary feat is certainly made more likely by someone's focus, hard work, etc. But chance also matters.	121
Peter Zumthor	I think the chance of finding beauty is higher if you don't work on it directly. Beauty in architecture is driven by practicality. This is what you learn from studying the old townscapes of the Swiss farmers.	121
Marcus Garvey	Chance has never yet satisfied the hope of a suffering people.	122
Gerard Butler	The chance to be both artistically appreciated and commercially appreciated... That's what you hope for.	122
Henri Poincare	A very small cause which escapes our notice determines a considerable effect that we cannot fail to see, and then we say that the effect is due to chance.	122
Jack Nicklaus	The longer you play, the better chance the better player has of winning.	122
Katy Perry	I have a second chance on life.	122
Russell Simmons	It is crucial that rappers have the chance to express the truth that is in their heart.	122
Stephen Leacock	I am a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it.	122
Steven Gerrard	This club is all about winning trophies and we've got a chance of bringing the greatest trophy of them all back to Anfield, so it means a great deal obviously.	122
James Earl Jones	You weren't going to the theater to change the world, but you had a chance to affect the world, the thinking and the feelings of the world.	122
Jenson Button	I think as a 20-year-old you expect life to always be easy. You get given a good hand and the chance to race in Formula One. You think the driver can make the difference, can make up for everything else within the team. But that is not the case. You are racing in such a competitive sport so that doesn't happen.	122
Franklin D. Roosevelt	I think we consider too much the good luck of the early bird and not enough the bad luck of the early worm.	123
Joe Biden	A diplomatic solution that puts significant and verifiable constraints on Iran's nuclear program represents the best and most sustainable chance to ensure that America, Israel, the entire Middle East will never be menaced by a nuclear-armed Iran.	123
Bo Bennett	Think of success as a game of chance in which you have control over the odds. As you begin to master concepts in personal achievement, you are increasing your odds of achieving success.	123
Charles Kuralt	Just by luck, I picked good heroes to worship.	123
Jason Statham	The insurance of working with a big, already successful franchise just gives you the chance to do other things on a more personal level.	123
Carmen Electra	I guess I've always been attracted to people who stand out as individuals - people who are adventurous and take chances.	123
John James Audubon	There is the morass, wherein you plunge up to your knees, or the walking over the stubborn, dwarfish shrubbery, whereby one treads down the forests of Labrador; and the unexpected bunting or sylvia which perchance, and indeed as if by chance alone, you now and then see flying before you, or hear singing from the ground creeping plant.	123
Benedict Cumberbatch	I'm a Prince of Wales Trust ambassador, so I'm all about giving youth an education, a voice and a chance to not take the wrong road.	124
Gail Sheehy	We really only have two choices. Play it safe, or take a chance. For me, pulling back because of fear has always made me feel worse.	124
John Cena	As a kid, what brought me in the gym, what got me in there every day was a chance to break your personal best, a chance to be strong; I just really, really dig that.	124
Orison Swett Marden	The golden opportunity you are seeking is in yourself. It is not in your environment; it is not in luck or chance, or the help of others; it is in yourself alone.	124
Ovid	Chance is always powerful. Let your hook always be cast; in the pool where you least expect it, there will be fish.	124
Plutarch	No man ever wetted clay and then left it, as if there would be bricks by chance and fortune.	124
Skrillex	I'm always on tour, so I'm always trying new tracks out live before they're released. That's more necessity than anything, because I don't get a proper chance to sit in a studio and work on tracks like other producers do.	124
Thomas Fuller	Care and diligence bring luck.	124
Mark Haddon	If you enjoy math and you write novels, it's very rare that you'll get a chance to put your math into a novel. I leapt at the chance.	124
Richard M. Nixon	If you take no risks, you will suffer no defeats. But if you take no risks, you win no victories.	125
Ice Cube	Music is where I have the most creative freedom, but I love producing. To me, that's kind of where all the action is. You get a chance to have your hands in every aspect of a film. From picking a director, sometimes picking a writer, to the actors, the wardrobe, set design, editing, music, and marketing.	125
Bobby Knight	Why talk now when so many things have been said without ever giving me a chance to talk?	125
Brad Pitt	Man, when I'm riding with the helmet on, I'm invisible. And people just deal with me as the guy on the bike... it gives you a chance to read 'em.	125
Jack Canfield	The longer you hang in there, the greater the chance that something will happen in your favor. No matter how hard it seems, the longer you persist, the more likely your success.	125
Ralph Marston	Beset by a difficult problem? Now is your chance to shine. Pick yourself up, get to work and get triumphantly through it.	125
Tom Hodgkinson	Being lazy does not mean that you do not create. In fact, lying around doing nothing is an important, nay crucial, part of the creative process. It is meaningless bustle that actually gets in the way of productivity. All we are really saying is, give peace a chance.	125
Wislawa Szymborska	Nothing can ever happen twice. In consequence, the sorry fact is that we arrive here improvised and leave without the chance to practice.	125
Jose Mourinho	The team is completely close. Anything you say outside, there is no chance it will go inside. So the team is really strong and compact. We know what we want and how to achieve it on the pitch.	125
Sophocles	God's dice always have a lucky roll.	126
Ben Bernanke	People saw the Depression as a necessary thing - a chance to squeeze out the excesses, get back to Puritan morality. That just made things worse.	126
Casey Stengel	You gotta learn that if you don't get it by midnight, chances are you ain't gonna get it, and if you do, it ain't worth it.	126
Christopher Lee	Acting as a profession came to me by chance: in 1946, after the war, I was having lunch with my cousin, who was the Italian ambassador, and he asked, 'What are you going to do now you're out of uniform?' I said, 'I'm pretty inventive, and I can imitate people,' and he said, 'Have you thought about being an actor?'	126
Daniel Day-Lewis	If people take an interest in you and they think there's half a chance, they might hang on. It's dreadful.	126
Harry Styles	I'm quite old-fashioned. I like going out to dinner. You have the chance to talk to somebody and get to know them better.	126
Jason Statham	A franchise is dictated on the success of doing one film right, so if you can get it done correctly, you've got a chance of something else, but sometimes it just doesn't work that way. Ideally, it's insurance for the future; if you can do something, if you can find a character that people really do like, then you're very lucky.	126
Myles Munroe	Every human heart cries and yearns for the same thing: a chance to fulfill his or her own dreams and desires. Even the poorest man has a dream.	126
Sophia Loren	No press conference announcing a last film. I'd just steal away. Best way because, if by chance after two or three years something interesting comes up, I would not - like Sinatra - have to say: 'Well, I've thought it over and decided to come back.'	126
Tom Hanks	I do not want to admit to the world that I can be a bad person. It is just that I don't want anyone to have false expectations. Moviemaking is a harsh, volatile business, and unless you can be ruthless, too, there's a good chance that you are going to disappear off the scene pretty quickly.	126
John Boehner	The value of the majority lies not in the opportunity to wield great power, but in the chance to use power to do great things.	126
Jean-Paul Sartre	Every existing thing is born without reason, prolongs itself out of weakness, and dies by chance.	201
Vaclav Havel	Work for something because it is good, not just because it stands a chance to succeed.	201
Euripides	Joint undertakings stand a better chance when they benefit both sides.	201
Carine Roitfeld	When in doubt, wear a suit. Look at male politicians: you see them in a suit, and they look fine. But if you see a picture of them on the weekend or on vacation, there's a good chance they look terrible and unstylish.	201
Harvey Fierstein	To work all the time is to be incredibly lucky.	201
Salma Hayek	Some men have a silly theory about beautiful women - that somewhere along the line they'll turn into a monster. That movie gave them a chance to watch it happen.	201
Thomas Fuller	A wise man turns chance into good fortune.	201
J. Michael Straczynski	The whole point of Superman, as originally created, was to be the ally of those who had no other allies. It put that magnitude of power, the most powerful guy in the world, in the service of those who had no hope, no chance.	201
Gordon Ramsay	When you're a chef, you graze. You never get a chance to sit down and eat. They don't actually sit down and eat before you cook. So when I finish work, the first thing I'll do, and especially when I'm in New York, I'll go for a run. And I'll run 10 or 15k on my - and I run to gain my appetite.	202
Mel Brooks	If Shaw and Einstein couldn't beat death, what chance have I got? Practically none.	202
Muhammad Yunus	Good economic theory must give the people the chance to use their talents to build their own lives. We must get away from the traditional route where the rich will do the business and the poor will depend on private or public charity.	202
Nathan Myhrvold	There is a one-in-300 chance that Earth will be struck on March 16, 2880, by an asteroid large enough to destroy civilization and possibly cause the extinction of the human race. But, on the bright side, Prince could re-release his hit song with the new refrain 'We're gonna party like its twenty-eight seventy-nine.'	202
Tony Dungy	We need somebody to give us a chance.	202
James Cash Penney	I believe in trusting men, not only once but twice - in giving a failure another chance.	202
Bobby Flay	The process and the great smells it produces make everyone hungry and get everyone's mouth watering. And it gives men a chance to cook.	203
Charles B. Rangel	As a high school dropout, I understand the value of education: A second chance at obtaining my high school diploma through the G.I. Bill led me to attend college and law school and allowed me the opportunity to serve in Congress.	203
Glenn Beck	I am going to take something I learned over in Israel. Their Independence Day is preceded the 24 hours before with Memorial Day, so it gives them a chance to serve and reflect and then celebrate. I am going to try to start that tradition here in America.	203
Herbie Hancock	I got a chance to work with Miles Davis, and that changed everything for me, 'cause Miles really encouraged all his musicians to reach beyond what they know, go into unknown territory and explore. It's made a difference to me and the decisions that I've made over the years about how to approach a project in this music.	203
Italo Calvino	Man is simply the best chance we know of that matter has had of providing itself with information about itself.	203
Mark Ruffalo	After the brain tumor happened, I realized I love acting, I've always loved it, I may never get a chance to do it again.	203
Henry A. Kissinger	We cannot always assure the future of our friends; we have a better chance of assuring our future if we remember who our friends are.	204
Demetri Martin	My favorite fruit is grapes. Because with grapes, you always get another chance. 'Cause, you know, if you have a crappy apple or a peach, you're stuck with that crappy piece of fruit. But if you have a crappy grape, no problem - just move on to the next. 'Grapes: The Fruit of Hope.'	204
Sam Walton	Give ordinary folk the chance to buy the same things as rich people.	204
Samuel Butler	People are lucky and unlucky not according to what they get absolutely, but according to the ratio between what they get and what they have been led to expect.	204
Tony Dungy	Balance provides the chance for longevity. You can be a champion at work and at home.	204
Walt Disney	We are not trying to entertain the critics. I'll take my chances with the public.	205
David Attenborough	I don't like rats, but there's not much else I don't like. The problem with rats is they have no fear of human beings, they're loaded with foul diseases, they would run the place given half the chance, and I've had them leap out of a lavatory while I've been sitting on it.	205
Alexis de Tocqueville	The whole life of an American is passed like a game of chance, a revolutionary crisis, or a battle.	205
Ariana Grande	To be honest, I never really considered myself to be too much of an actress. So, whenever I get the chance to do music, I'm always, like, just in it. It's like, 'Oh my God, I finally get to do this. I'm so happy.'	205
Helen Fisher	A lot of people head into courtship looking for fireworks. Don't pass up a chance by dumping someone after a first date because you don't feel the fireworks. The fireworks can happen at any time and be maintained.	205
Nhat Hanh	If you have the chance to be exposed to a loving, understanding environment where the seed of compassion, loving kindness, can be watered every day, then you become a more loving person.	205

John Stuart Mill	The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.	206
Alexis de Tocqueville	An American cannot converse, but he can discuss, and his talk falls into a dissertation. He speaks to you as if he was addressing a meeting; and if he should chance to become warm in the discussion, he will say 'Gentlemen' to the person with whom he is conversing.	206
Mario Andretti	If you're so afraid of failure, you will never succeed. You have to take chances.	206
Jane Fonda	I took every chance I could to meet with U.S. soldiers. I talked with them and read the books they gave me about the war. I decided I needed to return to my country and join with them - active duty soldiers and Vietnam Veterans in particular - to try and end the war.	206
Blaise Pascal	Chance gives rise to thoughts, and chance removes them; no art can keep or acquire them.	207
Charles de Gaulle	The true statesman is the one who is willing to take risks.	207
Annie Leibovitz	I'd like to think that the actions we take today will allow others in the future to discover the wonders of landscapes we helped protect but never had the chance to enjoy ourselves.	207
Harvey Mackay	By getting your customers to agree with you in small steps along the way, you have a better chance of reaching agreement when it's time to do business.	207
Jon Stewart	More than 150 heads of state attended the UN Summit, giving New Yorkers a chance to get in touch with prejudices they didn't even know they had.	207
Laurence J. Peter	Equal opportunity means everyone will have a fair chance at being incompetent.	207
Paul Valery	That which has been believed by everyone, always and everywhere, has every chance of being false.	207
Sugar Ray Leonard	I'm one of the most optimistic persons in the world. I always believed that - there's another shot, another chance. In boxing, I never gave up. I kept trying, kept trying. Even when things seemed so dim, I continued to push forward to make something happen in my favor.	207
Alex Berenson	Did anyone in the White House or the N.S.A or the C.I.A. consider flying to Hong Kong and treating Mr. Snowden like a human being, offering him a chance to testify before Congress and a fair trial?	207
Ansel Adams	In my mind's eye, I visualize how a particular... sight and feeling will appear on a print. If it excites me, there is a good chance it will make a good photograph. It is an intuitive sense, an ability that comes from a lot of practice.	208
Oprah Winfrey	Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right.	208
Adlai E. Stevenson	We must recover the element of quality in our traditional pursuit of equality. We must not, in opening our schools to everyone, confuse the idea that all should have equal chance with the notion that all have equal endowments.	208
Herman Cain	My presence in the social media and on the Internet is much bigger than many of the other candidates, including Mitt Romney. So, when you take the social media and you take the Tea Party citizens movement, you have a combination there that, quite frankly, 10 years ago, I wouldn't have had a chance.	208
Leonardo DiCaprio	I'm probably not going to get married unless I live with somebody for 10 or 20 years. But these people (Romeo and Juliet) took a chance and they did it. We don't have the balls that Romeo did.	208
Marjane Satrapi	If people are given the chance to experience life in more than one country, they will hate a little less. It's not a miracle potion, but little by little you can solve problems in the basement of a country, not on the surface.	208
Dwight D. Eisenhower	When you are in any contest, you should work as if there were - to the very last minute - a chance to lose it. This is battle, this is politics, this is anything.	209
Gunter Grass	In general, I agree with Jacob Grimm and feel that we ought to permit changes and uncontrolled growth in language. Even though that also allows potentially threatening new words to develop, language needs the chance to constantly renew itself.	209
Sean Connery	I met my wife through playing golf. She is French and couldn't speak English and I couldn't speak French, so there was little chance of us getting involved in any boring conversations - that's why we got married really quickly.	209
Billie Jean King	I like entrepreneurial people; I like people who take risks.	210
Christina Aguilera	I want to be a poet and have a chance to explore that and let people know what's really on my mind.	210
Helena Bonham Carter	What I loved about playing the corpse is that obviously somebody else got to do the physical part. It appeals to the part of me that likes playing character parts and getting the chance to get away from my own physicality.	210
Penn Jillette	I don't want anyone as president who promises to take care of me. I may be stupid, but I want a chance to try to be a grown-up and take care of my family.	210
Sun Tzu	The art of war teaches us to rely not on the likelihood of the enemy's not coming, but on our own readiness to receive him; not on the chance of his not attacking, but rather on the fact that we have made our position unassailable.	211
Jane Austen	Happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance.	211
Sean Combs	Fans made me. The fans gave me a chance, and they made me. Beyond that, my career has been trials and tribulations and ups and downs, so I have to have true fans riding with me.	211
Alan Moore	I've never watched any of the adaptations of my books. I've never wanted to, and there's absolutely no chance of me doing so in the future.	211
Muhammad Ali	When I won the Golden Gloves in 1960, that made me realize I had a chance. And when I won at the Olympics, that sealed it: I was the champ.	212
Chuck Palahniuk	If you knew that your life was merely a phase or short, short segment of your entire existence, how would you live? Knowing nothing 'real' was at risk, what would you do? You'd live a gigantic, bold, fun, dazzling life. You know you would. That's what the ghosts want us to do - all the exciting things they no longer can.	212
Doris Lessing	Man, who is he? Too bad, to be the work of God: Too good for the work of chance!	212
Sylvia Earle	The most important thing for people to know about the governance of the Arctic is that we have a chance now to act to maintain the integrity of the system or to lose it. To lose it means that we will dismember the vital systems that make the Arctic work. It's not just a cost to the people who live there. It's a cost to all people everywhere.	212
Tom Hiddleston	I thought theater people wouldn't see me if I hadn't trained. I didn't want to just be the Brideshead guy, to spend the rest of my life wearing waistcoats. I got the chance to try everything. Not just Romeos, but pimps and grandfathers and even one role as a woman in a Naomi Wallace play called Slaughter City.	212
Emily Dickinson	Luck is not chance, it's toil; fortune's expensive smile is earned.	213
H. Jackson Brown, Jr.	Luck marches with those who give their very best.	213
Ben Bernanke	The more guidance a central bank can provide the public about how policy is likely to evolve the greater the chance that market participants will make appropriate inferences.	213
Richard Pryor	It's been a struggle for me because I had a chance to be white and refused.	213
Jeanne Moreau	Living is risking.	213
Clint Eastwood	I never sympathise with the accused unless there's a chance the accused is not guilty, but I certainly don't ever sympathise with the criminal.	214
John Ortberg	When I teach the formal curriculum, I have the chance to think about it ahead of time. I can rehearse it. I can illustrate it with self-deprecating humor and humble-sounding personal disclosure. I can try to make it comes out just right.	214
Michael Jordan	In college I never realized the opportunities available to a pro athlete. I've been given the chance to meet all kinds of people, to travel and expand my financial capabilities, to get ideas and learn about life, to create a world apart from basketball.	215
Anatole France	Chance is perhaps the pseudonym of God when he did not want to sign.	215
Baltasar Gracian	Luck can be assisted. It is not all chance with the wise.	215
Tyler Cowen	I think people who are not rich can be extremely happy. And I think the chances to be happy in this new world - with many more opportunities to be creative, to be online, to educate yourself - there'll be a lot more chances to be happy. It's not to say everyone will take them, but there will be a lot of new paths to opportunity.	215
Samuel Johnson	No man will be a sailor who has contrivance enough to get himself into a jail; for being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being drowned... a man in a jail has more room, better food, and commonly better company.	216
Shah Rukh Khan	When I think back on it, of course I got lucky and got great directors and good breaks but all that was the physical part. But what made me a star was that I could take a chance and not have anything to worry about in terms of losing.	216
Tracy Chapman	If you are living a life that feels right to you, if you're willing to take creative chances or a creative path that feels like it's mostly in keeping with your sensibilities, you know, aesthetic and artistic, then that's what matters.	216
Walt Disney	It's no secret that we were sticking just about every nickel we had on the chance that people would really be interested in something totally new and unique in the field of entertainment.	217
Leonardo DiCaprio	Portraying emotionally ill characters gives me the chance to really act.	217
Michael J. Fox	You know what I want? The answer is, I truly don't know what I want. I don't want to do a television series. I want to do dramas as well as comedies, but I have no idea what kind or in what order. Just give me the chance at them.	217
John F. Kennedy	There are risks and costs to action. But they are far less than the long range risks of comfortable inaction.	218
Gore Vidal	I never miss a chance to have sex or appear on television.	218
Douglas Coupland	I decided at 40 I was wasting entire chunks of my brain and didn't want to blow my one chance on Earth. I'm glad I made that decision. Writing is largely about time, while visual art is largely about space. Sometimes, as with film, you can hybridize, but I think it's basically the space part of my brain wanting equal footing with the time part.	218
Lee Iacocca	Every business and every product has risks. You can't get around it.	218
Eminem	I don't even know how to speak up for myself, because I don't really have a father who would give me the confidence or advice. And if you're always the new kid, you never get a chance to adapt, so your confidence is just zilch.	219
Richard Dawkins	The chances of each of us coming into existence are infinitesimally small, and even though we shall all die some day, we should count ourselves fantastically lucky to get our decades in the sun.	219
Robert Kennedy	If I get to be president, what can I do anyway? With Congress and the press, what chance do I have to make basic changes?	219
Daniel Kahneman	An investment said to have an 80% chance of success sounds far more attractive than one with a 20% chance of failure. The mind can't easily recognize that they are the same.	219
Margaret Thatcher	Every family should have the right to spend their money, after tax, as they wish, and not as the government dictates. Let us extend choice, extend the will to choose and the chance to choose.	220
Anatole France	No government ought to be without censors; and where the press is free, no one ever will. Chance is the pseudonym of God when he did not want to sign.	220
Erykah Badu	But now I realize that this record business really needs me. No one else is trying to take a chance or do something different.	220
Kevin O'Leary	If you put a woman in prison for four years when she's young and make her pay her time in a horrible place and she wants to come out and work, and become a mother and be a contributor to society and pay taxes and you never give her that chance. There is something un-Canadian about that.	220
Nas	I definitely have plans to do more collaboration albums in the future. I'm a big fan of Common. I'm a big fan of Scarface; I'm a big fan of so many people, from Jeezy to... well, there are a lot of people's music that I respect. I don't know who I will collaborate with, but there's a great chance of something happening.	221
Gail Sheehy	I do think taking the 20s to take the most chances you can is important, because you're not going to hurt anyone else during that time. And if you do have a partner, you need a couple years to rehearse that relationship.	221
Joyce Meyer	Anytime we step out boldly to make changes, we take a chance that we might fail. But the only way to get better is to try.	222
Mae West	All discarded lovers should be given a second chance, but with somebody else.	222
Al Gore	I've learned the importance of changing people's minds at the grassroots level so that whoever does run will have a much better chance of encountering public opinion that reaches a critical mass and brings about a change not only in White House policies but in the Congress and in the state legislatures and all around the world.	222
Alicia Keys	I feel more like I'm a person who has so much to offer in different capacities that it would be a danger for me not to give myself a chance to spread my wings in all different directions.	222
Isaac Newton	Atheism is so senseless. When I look at the solar system, I see the earth at the right distance from the sun to receive the proper amounts of heat and light. This did not happen by chance.	223
Abraham Lincoln	If there is anything that a man can do well, I say let him do it. Give him a chance.	224
Estelle	Sometimes I wake up in the morning and feel like going straight back to bed. But I still have to get up and work, and I still have to take advantage of the chances I've been given in life.	224
Anatole France	What can be more foolish than to think that all this rare fabric of heaven and earth could come by chance, when all the skill of art is not able to make an oyster!	225
Henry Miller	We should read to give our souls a chance to luxuriate.	225
Robert Redford	I have the freedom to take chances, to say no. I have the freedom to be who I really want to be, rather than have to conform to this or that just to stay alive.	226
Dwight D. Eisenhower	The history of free men is never really written by chance but by choice; their choice!	303
Steven Pinker	Statisticians tell us that people underestimate the sheer number of coincidences that are bound to happen in a world governed by chance.	303
Anthony Hopkins	I love roller coasters. I don't get a chance often, but I've gone to Magic Mountain and gone on the rides. I love roller coasters.	304
Winston Churchill	A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.	305
Joel Osteen	I mean we all need a second chance sometimes.	305
Joyce Carol Oates	The worst cynicism: a belief in luck.	305
Alexander Pope	True ease in writing comes from art, not chance, as those move easiest who have learn'd to dance.	306
Euripides	Chance fights ever on the side of the prudent.	306
Voltaire	Chance is a word void of sense; nothing can exist without a cause.	307
Neil Gaiman	With 'Stardust', I hope what I was doing is giving 30-year-olds and 40-year-olds and 25-year-olds and 60-year-olds a chance to get the same sense of wonder, the same feeling, the same magic, that they got in reading the classic fairy tales as children.	307
Henry Miller	I have never been able to look upon America as young and vital but rather as prematurely old, as a fruit which rotted before it had a chance to ripen.	307
H. Jackson Brown, Jr.	Hold puppies, kittens, and babies anytime you get the chance.	308
Bill Cosby	If the new American father feels bewildered and even defeated, let him take comfort from the fact that whatever he does in any fathering situation has a fifty percent chance of being right.	308
E. W. Howe	When a man has no reason to trust himself, he trusts in luck.	308
Ezra Taft Benson	A woman whose life is involved in the righteous rearing of her children has a better chance of keeping up her spirits than the woman whose total concern is centered in her own personal problems.	308
Ray Bradbury	We've gotta become the Martians. I'm a Martian - I tell you to become Martians. And we've gotta go to Mars and civilize Mars and build a whole civilization on Mars and then move out, 300 years from now into the universe. And when we do that, we have a chance of living forever.	311
Marcus Samuelsson	When I get the chance to make my favorite breakfast on the weekend, I often choose to make pancakes.	312
Lou Holtz	I'm proud to be part of the Dr. Pepper Scholarship Giveaway. It's a great program that gives me the chance to brighten the day for some lucky college students with free tuition.	313
Bruce Springsteen	My image had always been very heterosexual, very straight. So it was a nice experience for me, a chance to clarify my own feelings about gay and lesbian civil rights.	314
Hunter S. Thompson	Marathon running, like golf, is a game for players, not winners. That is why Callaway sells golf clubs and Nike sells running shoes. But running is unique in that the world's best racers are on the same course, at the same time, as amateurs, who have as much chance of winning as your average weekend warrior would scoring a touchdown in the NFL.	314
Steven Spielberg	Cell phones tend to bring us more inside of our lives whereas movies offer a chance to escape, so there are two competing forces.	316
Ronald Reagan	It's true hard work never killed anybody, but I figure, why take the chance?	317
Wayne Dyer	When you face a 'performance' that might provoke the 'I'm scared' response, choose love and approach your opportunity as a chance to dance with God. It's more fun than 'Dancing with the Stars!'	318
Zig Ziglar	Whether it's eight o'clock in the morning or eight o'clock at night, I always try to greet others before they have a chance to speak to me.	319

Arthur Schopenhauer	Suffering by nature or chance never seems so painful as suffering inflicted on us by the arbitrary will of another.	402
P. J. O'Rourke	Most people sort of enjoy going to work because of the socialisation, a chance to flirt with co-workers and so on, but actually hate the job they do.	402
Steve Jobs	We don't get a chance to do that many things, and every one should be really excellent. Because this is our life. Life is brief, and then you die, you know? So this is what we've chosen to do with our life.	404
Stephen Hawking	I think we have a good chance of surviving long enough to colonize the solar system.	406
Hunter S. Thompson	I have warned many times about the guaranteed dangers of betting with your heart instead of your head - big darkness, soon come - but every once in a while you get a fair chance to have it both ways, and the annual NCAA basketball Tournament is one of them.	409
Malcolm X	The goal of Dr. Martin Luther King is to give Negroes a chance to sit in a segregated restaurant beside the same white man who had brutalized them for 400 years.	409
Ernest Hemingway	I always rewrite each day up to the point where I stopped. When it is all finished, naturally you go over it. You get another chance to correct and rewrite when someone else types it, and you see it clean in type. The last chance is in the proofs. You're grateful for these different chances.	410
Francois de La Rochefoucauld	Though men are apt to flatter and exalt themselves with their great achievements, yet these are, in truth, very often owing not so much to design as chance.	411
Alice Walker	As long as the people don't fear the truth, there is hope. For once they fear it, the one who tells it doesn't stand a chance. And today, truth is still beautiful... but so frightening.	412
Ambrose Bierce	Insurance - an ingenious modern game of chance in which the player is permitted to enjoy the comfortable conviction that he is beating the man who keeps the table.	414
Richard Dawkins	Let us understand what our own selfish genes are up to because we may then at least have the chance to upset their designs.	415
Stephen Hawking	Science predicts that many different kinds of universe will be spontaneously created out of nothing. It is a matter of chance which we are in.	415

Ronald Reagan	Going to college offered me the chance to play football for four more years.	424
Bill Gates	I really had a lot of dreams when I was a kid, and I think a great deal of that grew out of the fact that I had a chance to read a lot.	425
Samuel Johnson	Being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being drowned.	426
Noam Chomsky	The former colonies, in Latin America in particular, have a better chance than ever before to overcome centuries of subjugation, violence and foreign intervention, which they have so far survived as dependencies with islands of luxury in a sea of misery.	502
Lindsey Vonn	I take risks - that's my life on the slopes and off.	503
Elon Musk	If we're going to have any chance of sending stuff to other star systems, we need to be laser-focused on becoming a multi-planet civilisation.	505
Abraham Lincoln	I will prepare and some day my chance will come.	508
Donald Trump	Come November, the American people will have the chance to re-declare their independence. Americans will have a chance to vote for trade, immigration and foreign policies that put our citizens first. They will have the chance to reject today's rule by the global elite, and to embrace real change that delivers a government of, by and for the people.	508
Rob Lowe	If you are worried about what people think of you, you should go into politics. Real actors take chances.	513

Benjamin Disraeli	A consistent soul believes in destiny, a capricious one in chance.	520
Friedrich Nietzsche	There are people who want to make men's lives more difficult for no other reason than the chance it provides them afterwards to offer their prescription for alleviating life; their Christianity, for instance.	605
Mark Twain	Necessity is the mother of taking chances.	617
Mark Twain	When a person cannot deceive himself the chances are against his being able to deceive other people.	618
Hillary Clinton	If you get so unequal that people believe they don't have a chance, that the field isn't level for them and their children, that puts democracy at risk.	620
Hillary Clinton	Now, I have always believed that women are not victims; we are agents of change, we are drivers of progress, we are makers of peace - all we need is a fighting chance.	705
Hillary Clinton	I'll work to ensure that every single refugee who seeks asylum in the United States has a fair chance to tell his or her story. This is the least we can offer people fleeing persecution and devastation.	710
Barack Obama	You can choose a future where more Americans have the chance to gain the skills they need to compete, no matter how old they are or how much money they have. Education was the gateway to opportunity for me. It was the gateway for Michelle. And now more than ever, it is the gateway to a middle-class life.	720
Hillary Clinton	I just think that giving a child a chance and sharing what you have with a child is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself, as well as a child.	721
Barack Obama	What makes us Americans is our shared commitment to an ideal - that all of us are created equal, and all of us have the chance to make of our lives what we will.	813
Henry David Thoreau	Read the best books first, or you may not have a chance to read them at all.	905
Benjamin Franklin	I have never entered into any controversy in defense of my philosophical opinions; I leave them to take their chance in the world. If they are right, truth and experience will support them; if wrong, they ought to be refuted and rejected. Disputes are apt to sour one's temper and disturb one's quiet.	906
Ralph Waldo Emerson	There is no chance and anarchy in the universe. All is system and gradation. Every god is there sitting in his sphere.	1021
