Nassim Nicholas Taleb

“Life is sacrifice and risk taking, and nothing that doesn't entail some moderate amount of the former, under the constraint of satisfying the latter, is close to what we can call life. If you do not undertake a risk of real harm, reparable or even potentially irreparable, from an adventure, it is not an adventure.”

Nassim Nicholas Taleb, Skin in the Game: The Hidden Asymmetries in Daily Life
