Acceptable Risk

Famous quotes containing the words acceptable and/or risk:

“Some authors have what amounts to a metaphysical approach. They admit to inspiration. Sudden and unaccountable urgencies to write catapult them out of sleep and bed. For myself, I have never awakened to jot down an idea that was acceptable the following morning.”
—Fannie Hurst (1889–1968)

“The married are those who have taken the terrible risk of intimacy and, having taken it, know life without intimacy to be impossible.”
