“Reality is far more vicious than Russian roulette. First, it delivers the fatal bullet rather infrequently, like a revolver that would have hundreds, even thousands of chambers instead of six.

One is capable of unwittingly playing Russian roulette - and calling it by some alternative “low risk” game.”
