Famous quotes containing the word ventures:

    If one ventures a word with you, will you be offended? But who can keep from speaking?
    Bible: Hebrew, Job 4:2.

    Eliphaz, one of Job’s “comforters,” to Job.

    At the moment when a man openly makes known his difference of opinion from a well-known party leader, the whole world thinks that he must be angry with the latter. Sometimes, however, he is just on the point of ceasing to be angry with him. He ventures to put himself on the same plane as his opponent, and is free from the tortures of suppressed envy.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
