Chance is opportunity, and those who are offered a chance need to do something with this opportunity in order to make it successful. There is a chance that you could win the lottery, but only if you buy a ticket for the drawing. Hesitating to take a chance could mean the loss of the opportunity that is being offered, but there is always some degree of risk that is involved when a chance is taken that should be calculated.
A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on
It is by chance that we met, by choice that we became friends
