I grew up doing musical theatre in Orlando, Florida. When I was 14, I just happened to be in the right place at the right time - a deliveryman heard me singing and offered to deliver my demo tape to Sony Music. I was just really lucky.

Mandy Moore

I feel like my career has always been a series of collisions and accidents. Being in the right place at the right time. Having the right haircut. It's so mad to think that it happened in the way that it happened.

Boy George

I always went into an area that was in last place, with a philosophy, 'You can't fall off the floor.' And I was lucky, was at the right time and the right place, with the right ideas, and each one of these areas became number one.

Michael Eisner

They say the secret of success is being at the right place at the right time, but since you never know when the right time is going to be, I figure the trick is to find the right place and just hang around.

Bill Watterson

The big thing is, everybody says it's being in the right place at the right time. But it's more than that, it's being in the right place all the time. Because if I make 20 runs to the near post and each time I lose my defender, and 19 times the ball goes over my head or behind me - then one time I'm three yards out, the ball comes to the right place and I tap it in - then people say, right place, right time. And I was there *all* the time.

Gary Lineker

I'll pat myself on the back and admit I have talent. Beyond that, I just happened to be in the right place at the right time

Ethel Merman

I'll pat myself on the back and admit I have talent. Beyond that, I just happened to be in the right place at the right time.

Ethel Merman

I was lucky to be in the right place at the right time. But many others were also in the same place. The difference was that I took action.

Bill Gates

We were always around music and we were lucky to be in the right place at the right time, knowing the right friends.

Keren Woodward

Lucky people create, notice and act upon the chance opportunities in their lives. Being in the right place at the right time is actually all about being in the right state of mind.

Richard Wiseman

I was very lucky to be in the right place at the right time and play with Michael Jordan.

B. J. Armstrong

You have to be talented. You have to work hard; you have to get the right pieces flowin' for you at the right time. And that's just what happened to me. I can't explain what happened.

Action Bronson

I have to say I was very lucky in this [movie] business. I was in the right place at the right time when I first got started.

Richard Masur

For whatever reason, luck and word of mouth - my comedy career couldn't have started better. I went to Edinburgh, selling out this 300-seater just because I got the right place, right time, right venue, right buzz, right reviews early on.

Tim Minchin

I'm just lucky to have been in the right place at the right time. Another place, another time, I wouldn't have been as successful. Society enabled me to make my money and my money should go to society.

Warren Buffett

I think it just boils down to right place, right time, and just being able to break them big fights. Maybe it wasn't England's time, and right now, I feel like it's England's time.
