When you have the opportunity to make music with great musicians, take it. That's it. That's the only reason I need, really.
Opportunities come infrequently. When it rains gold, put out the bucket, not the thimble.
When the rare chance comes, seize it To do the rare deed.
Well, well, my boy, if good luck knocks at your door, don't you put your head out at window and tell it to be gone about its business, that's all.
If given a really great chance, I'm going to put it away every single time.
You don't get many chances in the world, and you don't want to throw them away.
I'm a firm believer in that you've got to strike the iron when it's hot.
Luck happens when opportunity encounters the prepared mind.
A lot of guys ask me, 'Why did you go straight from high school to the NBA?' So I ask them, 'If you had the opportunity to take your dream job at 17- or 18-years-old, would you do it?'
I take the opportunity each day offers.
[When] opportunities present themselves, I take them. It's just how I roll!
If someone has the opportunity to become a model, I would say, 'Do it.'
Take every opportunity that comes your way and most importantly have fun with it.
If someone gives you an opportunity, you better maximize it so that he wants to give you the next one.
