Today the man who is the real risk-taker is anonymous and nonheroic. He is the one trying to make institutions work.

I played like a dog today. I had a two-foot putt on the second hole for birdie that didn't touch the hole. And it didn't get any better from there. ' I didn't putt real well today.

If you risk nothing, then you risk everything

Yes, risk taking is inherently failure-prone. Otherwise, it would be called sure-thing-taking.

The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing, and becomes nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn and feel and change and grow and love and live.

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.
