To laugh is to risk appearing a fool;

To weep is to risk appearing sentimental;

To reach out for another is to risk involvement.

To expose feelings is to risk rejection;

To place your dreams before the crowd is to risk ridicule;

To love is to risk not being loved in return;

To go forward in the face of overwhelming odds is to risk failure;

But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing;

The person who risks nothing does nothing,has nothing,is nothing;

He may avoid suffering and sorrow,but he cannot learn,feel,change,grow or love;

Chained by his certitudes,he is a slave,he has forfeited his freedom;

Only a person who takes risks is free.

大笑，会冒显得傻气的风险；

哭泣，会冒显得伤感的风险；

接触他人他事，会冒受牵连的风险；

吐露心声，会冒不被认同的风险；

向大家说出自己的梦想，会冒遭人奚落的风险；

去爱，会冒没有爱的回应的风险；

面对机会勇往直前，会冒失败的风险。

但是，险是一定要冒的，因为人生中最大的危险的是不冒任何风险。

不冒任何风险的人将一事无成，一无所有，一无是处。

他或许能躲避痛苦与悲伤，却无从学习、体验、蜕变、成长和去爱。

不出任何差错的心态牵制着他，那他就是个丧失自由的奴隶，

只有敢去冒险的人才是自由的。
