As we abide in sleep, intuitively resonating with the sum of all our experiences - this life and beyond - we gain refreshing perspective on our efforts and have an opportunity to remember what we know.
Henry Reed, English Writer (1914-1986)
The liberal ideal is that everyone should have fair access and fair opportunity. This is not equality of result. It's equality of opportunity. There's a fundamental difference.
Robert Reich, American Economist (1946-  )
It's been about 15 years, and I've never really worked seriously in CGI and I thought that here was an opportunity to do the kinds of things that I was not able to do on Ghostbusters.
Ivan Reitman, Canadian Actor (1946-  )
I'm interested in giving business an opportunity by improving the tax environment to invest and grow with Pennsylvania, to expand and put more money in capital investment and creating jobs.
Ed Rendell, American Politician (1944-  )
The people of the Middle East share the desire for freedom. We have an opportunity - and an obligation - to help them turn this desire into reality.
Condoleezza Rice, American Statesman (1954-  )
Returning to South Carolina meant getting a normal job in a normal town with normal people and marrying a normal person. I wanted the glamour and opportunity of the world.
Donna Rice, American Celebrity (1958-  )
So, practice, particularly after you've attained a job, any kind of job, like playing with a four piece band, that's... an opportunity to develop.
Buddy Rich, American Musician (1917-1987)
Well, I never really practiced because I never had the opportunity to practice.
Buddy Rich, American Musician (1917-1987)
We must never forget that it is the private sector - not government - that is the engine of economic opportunity. Businesses, particularly small businesses, flourish and can provide good jobs when government acts as a productive partner.
Bill Richardson, American Politician (1947-  )
I did Chicago on Broadway the year before last. That was a great opportunity and I had a blast.
Kevin Richardson, American Musician (1971-  )
I obviously prefer writing novels but I take my journalism very seriously, and I enjoy doing it between novels. It gives me an opportunity to move in the outside world.
Mordecai Richler, Canadian Novelist (1931-2001)
Never surrender opportunity for security.
Branch Rickey, American Athlete (1881-1965)
I have no great urge to be minister of this or minister of that, but instead would feel incredible blessed to have the opportunity to be a champion for a constituency and fight for their cause.
Adam Rickitt, British Actor (1978-  )
Don't get me wrong, some of the mis-informed articles I have read over the last few weeks have been incredibly frustrating, but for my part I fully appreciate the opportunity I have been given and want to grasp it firmly.
Adam Rickitt, British Actor (1978-  )
We now have an opportunity, though, to do something we didn't do in the industrial age, and that is to get a leg up on this, to bring the public in quickly, to have an informed debate.
Jeremy Rifkin, American Economist
In next five to 10 years I probably would have done my best work, but I was afraid of having another 10 or 15 years ahead of me and feeling stale, so this was an opportunity to reinvigorate myself.
Michael Ritchie, American Director (1938-2001)
Sometimes I would like the opportunity to do character-driven comedy and that's really what I was trying to do in Meet The Parents. I think in a way this is a more old fashioned type of comedy.
Jay Roach, American Director
The meeting of preparation with opportunity generates the offspring we call luck.
Tony Robbins, American Author (1960-  )
Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and responsibility to give something back by becoming more.
Tony Robbins, American Author (1960-  )
It was just crazy opportunity to see that whole world and the competitions that we had in the film, like Long Beach, it was just crazy and so much fun. I felt like I lived all those moments in the movie.
John Robinson, -
