Accept that all of us can be hurt that all of us can and surely will at times fail. Other vulnerabilities like being embarrassed or risking love can be terrifying too. I think we should follow a simple rule: if we can take the worst take the risk.

On 'Into The Wild' I spent months risking my life and on 'Speed Racer' I spent 60 days acting in front of a green screen. No danger to my physical self but I sure had to use my imagination.

If I am outspoken of the dangers of intemperance to members of our armed forces it is because we are all especially concerned for the welfare of those who are risking their lives in the cause of freedom.

Risk means everything from being honest about your faith to moving to quitting a job that's paying you a fortune but it's not what's in your heart. Risking things is one of the biggest fears we have.

It is only by risking our persons from one hour to another that we live at all. And often enough our faith beforehand in an uncertified result is the only thing that makes the result come true.

It's not about failure it's about trying something and risking something for attaining your goal.

I don't have a fear factor. Well not much of one. And I'm willing to risk quite a lot - as a comedian you're always risking a lot. You're risking failure especially if you're improvising and going on TV shows trying to make comedy out of thin air. That is quite a risky business.

Emigration is no longer a solution it's a defeat. People are risking death drowning every day but they're knocking on doors that are not open.

Constantly risking absurdity and death whenever he performs above the heads of his audience the poet like an acrobat climbs on rhyme to a high wire of his own making.

I postpone death by living by suffering by error by risking by giving by losing.
