“To Risk
To laugh is to risk appearing the fool.
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.
To reach out is to risk involvement,
To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self.
To place your ideas and
dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss.
To love is to risk not being loved in return,
To live is to risk dying,
To hope is to risk despair,
To try is to risk failure.
But risks must be taken because
the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
The person who risks nothing, does nothing,
has nothing, is nothing.”

“It’s only human to want to escape painful or difficult situations. But in most cases people find that they cannot escape reality. Life is about making continuous efforts to move forward with a positive attitude while enduring whatever misfortune or mishap that might occur. This is how I was able to realize my dreams in my own life.” ──Kazuo Inamori”
