“Be wise enough not to be reckless, but brave enough to take great risks.”

“Amateur: One reckless enough to risk being interesting.”

“You must be true to yourself. Strong enough to be true to yourself. Brave enough to be strong enough to be true to yourself. Wise enough to be brave enough, to be strong enough to shape yourself from what you actually are.”

“I want to live my life taking the risk - all the time - that I don't know anything like-enough yet, that I haven't understood enough, that I can't know enough, that I'm always hungrily operating on the margins of a potentially great harvest of future knowledge and wisdom...Take the risk of thinking for yourself, much more happiness, truth, beauty, and wisdom will come to you.”

“Love's for fools wise enough to take a chance.”

“The question, love, is whether you want me enough to take the risk.”
