Famous quotes containing the words grip and/or safety:

“The grip that swung the ax in Illinois
Was on the pen that set a people free.”
—Edwin Markham (1852–1940)

“[As teenager], the trauma of near-misses and almost- consequences usually brings us to our senses. We finally come down someplace between our parents’ safety advice, which underestimates our ability, and our own unreasonable disregard for safety, which is our childlike wish for invulnerability. Our definition of acceptable risk becomes a product of our own experience.”
—Roger Gould (20th century)
