Bellator offered me a job. UFC never offered me an opportunity to fight. There's no question that UFC is the top. It's a machine. A lot of people, including myself, have helped build the UFC to where it is today.

Ken Shamrock

Wenger gave me the opportunity to be where I am today. He's a coach that helped me a lot, who gave me a chance, who's always been there for me in the bad moments. He called me, consoled me, gave me good advice, told me what I had to do to become a great player. I can only thank him.

Emmanuel Adebayor

UFC gave me a lot of things, and I gave a lot to the UFC. We had a good relationship. Sometimes we had a little bit of problems, but not very important.

Fabricio Werdum

I always wanted to write something illustrated, and the Details strip finally gave me the opportunity.

Rick Moody

I always wanted to return to the company that gave me my first opportunity. Thanks to AAA, Rey Mysterio was born.

Rey Mysterio

In my first interview in the UFC, I asked them to throw me among the lions. I wanted to fight the best, and that's what the UFC did. Ex-champions, future champions - that's what I wanted.

Charles Oliveira

As soon as I found MMA, I knew that this is what I wanted to do, and it gave me focus because I was good at it anyway, and it gave me a goal to reach. I kept winning my fights, and it's given me a goal and a career opportunity.

Jimi Manuwa

Finding ballet gave me passion for the first time in my life. I was always very shy and just wanted to fit in; I never daydreamed about what I wanted to be when I grew up. But dancing gave me a connection to my personality that made me grow.

Misty Copeland

I was down in Tampa and it just wasn't a good setup for me, all things considered. But it also gave me the opportunity to get out of there and kind of start over. The Giants, fortunately for me, gave me the opportunity, another shot. I'm just trying to make the most of it.

Pat Burrell

The Heat gave me an opportunity when nobody else wanted to.

Udonis Haslem

Norwich gave me the platform to perform in the Championship, and between Daniel Farke and Stuart Webber, the manager and director of football, they gave me the opportunity to go out, express myself, and play. That's what led to my England call-up, which was something I'd always dreamed of, so it's something I'll always be grateful to them for.

James Maddison

There was a point when people didn't see the UFC as supporting the LGBT community or homosexuality. But by embracing me, the UFC showed that wasn't true and that it wanted to support the community as much as possible.

Liz Carmouche

And what better way to reinvent the form than to toss virtually 99% of everything that's been done with it and start with a brand-new canvas, reinvent it from the ground up? Digital comics gave me the opportunity to do that, and producing things digitally gave me the opportunity to do that.

Scott McCloud

I asked for strength, and God gave me difficulties to make me strong. I asked for wisdom, and God gave me problems to learn to solve. I asked for prosperity, and God gave me a brain and brawn to work. I asked for courage, and God gave me dangers to overcome. I asked for love, and God gave me people to help. I asked for favors, and God gave me opportunities. I received nothing I wanted. I received everything I needed.

Hazrat Inayat Khan

I think for a lot of us, you know, what 'Hamilton' gave us the opportunity to, what it gave me the opportunity to do, was to go, 'Here's what I've learned in 35 years.'
