i was taught that there is 4 startigic squares "e4.d4.e5.d5" u can notice they are the center of the board.. if you can control them you will have the advantage in the game ... but to win you have to plan and concentrate and most of all don't sacrifice the king :-)
Personally i prefer to play e4,d4 because they allow me to control at least 1 of the 4 main squares and threten another in addition they allow other pieces to move..
further more i believe that all the openings have the main goal to control the center of the board.. for ex. if you play c4 although it doesn't control a center square but it prevents your oponent if controling it.. so the goal is fight for the center..
Note: if you like try to look on FIDE.com "world chess federation" u may find usefull info..
Hope my answer is usefull for you..

I read the other answers and you sound like a begginer, and they where kinda hard to read if your new to the game. Look like most said moving the pawn in front of the king would be good, it lets your bishop out and queen. When new to the game try to 1. control the center, 2. move out knights firstand bishops first before attacking 3. protect your pieces, 4. look at all the options, chess is a game of patience, when your opponent moves look at what that piece does, AND what it opens. I like to use a simple site, www.chessgames.com, they have a opening database, look threw it find one you like. Then practice, there is no easy opening in chess, the best way to learn an opening is just play. Another helpful hint is queens are worth 9 pawns, rooks are worth 5 pawns, Knights and bishops are worth 3 pawns. There are always exceptions though, good luck and just play man you will find an opening you like after enough games.

If you're just starting out - in the first 10 moves of the game you should:
1)have one or 2 pawns in the center of the board (King or Queen pawns)
2)Both Knights developed
3)Both Bishops developed
4) Castled

I would advice you to play the stone-wall attack as I personally feel it is a one-sided attack for white on the king's side. The stone-wall attack is as follow below:
1. d4 d5
2. e3 e6 (move may vary for player)
3. Bd3 Nc6 (the move Bd3 is important as it controls the diagonal pointing at the king's side) [Again, the reply from black might vary]
4. Nbd2 Nf6
5. f4 Bd6 (the move f4 is to control the e5 square which is important for white)
6. Ngf3 0-0
7. Ne5 Bd7 (If black captures the knight, capture it with the pawn on f4 and on the next move,after the black knight on f6 flees, play e4 to get rid of the doubled pawns and activate the dark-squared bishop on c1)
8. Nf3 Bxe5
9. Nxe5 Nxe5
10. fxe5 Ne8
11. ... ...
8.

Queens Gambit:
Move the Kings pawn forward two squares, it opens up space for the bishop and the queen together...

Move the kings pawn up one space to free your bishop and queen, then move both of your knights because the more spaces you threaten, the more of an advantage you have.

It depends on your type of play. Most openings aren't that bad. If white, I like Pawn to D4 so can attempt Queen's Gambit.

Kings pawn.
e2-e4 (if your playing white)
Why? Well, you open up both the queen and the bishop. The knights are also open for strategic placement.

starting from your bottom left corner, letters along the bottom, numbers up the side
pawn e2 -e3
knight g1 - h3
queen d1 - f3
knight h3 - g5
queen f3 - f7
easy checkmate if your opponent isnt watching or if they think theyve blocked the 4 move check mate with their first pawn!!!
