from a latin proverb that's not uncommon in English either, apparently.
full form is
opportunity has hair in front, but behind she is bald;if you seize her by the forlock, you may hold her, but if suffered to
escape, not Jupiter himself can catch her again. |

Literally means that the goddess only has bangs, meaning that if you let her slip past you you will be unable to grab her hair from behind and take advantage of whatever opportunity she presents. |
