Bold Signal

Famous quotes containing the words bold and/or signal:

    The bold enterprises are the successful ones. Take counsel of hopes rather than of fears to win in this business.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Certainly the effort to remain unchanged, young, when the body gives so impressive a signal of change as the menopause, is gallant; but it is a stupid, self-sacrificial gallantry, better befitting a boy of twenty than a woman of forty-five or fifty. Let the athletes die young and laurel-crowned. Let the soldiers earn the Purple Hearts. Let women die old, white-crowned, with human hearts.
    Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
