To laugh is to risk apearing the fool,
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental,
To reach out for another is to risk involvement,
To expose feelings is to risk being your true self,
To place your ideas, your dreams, befor the crowd is to risk loss,
To love is to risk not being loved in return,
To live is to risk dying,
To hope is to risk despare,
To try at all is to risk failure,
But risk we must because the greatest hazzard to life is to risk nothing, do nothing, have nothing, be nothing
