About This Quote

When the rare chance comes, seize it. To do the rare deed. The word "rare" here is used in the sense of an incredibly valuable or important thing. And that's why this quote is really about seizing opportunities rather than avoiding them.

If you're always trying to avoid the chance to do something, you're never going to take advantage of it when it does happen. So, make sure you seize every opportunity that comes your way.
