This probably isn't the answer you are looking for; I suspect it is being quoted (or misquoted) from another source, but it appears in the McGill [Univ.] Reporter as follows:

"You might as well ride the horse in the direction it's going. You might as well look at this as an opportunity, not an obstacle."
