Taking chances in LIFE

Risk Quotations I got from bellaonline.com
I really cherished them.

"Most people can do extraordinary things if they have the confidence or take the risks. Yet most people don't. They sit in front of the telly and treat life as if it goes on forever."--Philip Adams

"Laugh at yourself, but don't ever aim your doubt at yourself. Be bold. When you embark for strange places, don't leave any of yourself safely on shore. Have the nerve to go into unexplored territory."--Alan Alda

"That's the risk you take if you change: that people you've been involved with won't like the new you. But other people who do will come along."--Lisa Alther

"Our lives improve only when we take chances-and the first and most difficult risk we can take is to be honest with ourselves."--Walter Anderson

"If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space."--Anonymous

"If a man will begin with certainities, he shall end in doubts: but if he will be content to begin with doubts, he whall end in certainties. They are ill discoverers that think there is no land, when they can see nothing but sea."--Francis Bacon

"Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary."--Sir Cecil Beaton
