Absolute Risk Aversion

Famous quotes containing the words absolute, risk and/or aversion:

    The research on gender and morality shows that women and men looked at the world through very different moral frameworks. Men tend to think in terms of “justice” or absolute “right and wrong,” while women define morality through the filter of how relationships will be affected. Given these basic differences, why would men and women suddenly agree about disciplining children?
    Ron Taffel (20th century)

    Risk! Risk anything! Care no more for the opinion of others, for those voices. Do the hardest thing on earth for you. Act for yourself. Face the truth.
    Katherine Mansfield (1888–1923)

    My true friends have always given me that supreme proof of devotion, a spontaneous aversion for the man I loved.
    Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)
