What I think is interesting is that the more you do, you have to invent a book of rules of what you can do and what you can’t do. And the very real danger is that if your book of rules becomes a book of cliches Picture Quote #1

Marching thus at night, a battalion is doubly impressive. The silent monster is full of restrained power; resolute in its onward sweep, impervious to danger, it looks a menacing engine of destruction, steady to its goal, and certain of its mission Picture Quote #1

The person who runs away exposes himself to that very danger more than a person who sits quietly Picture Quote #1

That is a big danger, losing your inspiration. When I work in film and television I try to do each take a little differently. I never want to do the same thing twice, because then you’re not being spontaneous, you’re just recreating something Picture Quote #1

Democracy is an extraordinary adventure. It’s difficult, full of daring and risk and danger. But it’s the greatest gift we have Picture Quote #1

As a nation we have the right to decide our own affairs, to mould our own future. This does not pose any danger to anybody. Our nation is fully aware of the responsibility for its own fate in the complicated situation of the contemporary world Picture Quote #1

It’s easier not to make a particular joke in case it offends. But every joke will offend someone, and I’ve always believed that the audience is bigger than one person. The danger is that things will become bland Picture Quote #1

There is often less danger in the things we fear than in the things we desire Picture Quote #1

To take something from a person and keep it for oneself: that is robbery. To take something from one person and then turn it over to another in exchange for as much money as you can get: that is business. Robbery is so much more stupid, since it is satisfied with a single, frequently dangerous profit; whereas in business it can be doubled without danger Picture Quote #1

Thus, that one can find no place to walk through the breadth of the earth is not because the earth is not tranquil but because the danger to every step of the traveler lies generally with words Picture Quote #1

The greatest danger we face is not any particular kind of thought. The greatest danger we face is absence of thought Picture Quote #1

It is obvious that no difficulty in the way of world government can match the danger of a world without it Picture Quote #1

Walk a single path, becoming neither cocky with victory nor broken with defeat, without forgetting caution when all is quiet or becoming frightened when danger threatens Picture Quote #1

For every apparent gain, in short, we now observe a balancing danger. This is the world we have created Picture Quote #1

There is never any real danger in allowing a pedestal for a hero. He never has time to sit on it. One sees him always over and over again kicking his pedestal out from under him, and using it to batter a world with Picture Quote #1

I prefer a little free speech to no free speech at all; but how many have free speech or the chance or the mind for it; and is not free speech here as elsewhere clamped down on in ratio of its freedom and danger? Picture Quote #1

Naturally, the common people don’t want war... but after all it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country Picture Quote #1

Wine makes a man better pleased with himself. I do not say that it makes him more pleasing to others. Sometimes it does. But the danger is, that while a man grows better pleased with himself, he may be growing less pleasing to others. Wine gives a man nothing. It neither gives him knowledge nor wit; it only animates a man, and enables him to bring out what a dread of the company has presented Picture Quote #1

The biggest danger for a politician is to shake hands with a man who is physically stronger, has been drinking, and is voting for the other guy Picture Quote #1

Tennis can be a grind and there’s always the danger of going stale if you think about it too much. You can get embittered if you train too hard and have nothing else on your mind. You have to be able to relax between matches and between tournaments Picture Quote #1

Guilt is to danger, what fire is to gunpowder; a man need not fear to walk among many barrels of powder, if he have no fire about him Picture Quote #1

Thou art blind to the danger of marrying a woman who feels and acts out the principle of equal rights Picture Quote #1

There is small danger of being starved in our land of plenty; but the danger of being stuffed is imminent Picture Quote #1

The mere apprehension of a coming evil has put many into a situation of the utmost danger Picture Quote #1

A pedestrian is a man in danger of his life. A walker is a man in possession of his soul Picture Quote #1

There’s nothing so comfortable as a small bankroll. A big one is always in danger Picture Quote #1

Writing is to descend like a miner to the depths of the mine with a lamp on your forehead, a light whose dubious brightness falsifies everything, whose wick is in permanent danger of explosion, whose blinking illumination in the coal dust exhausts and corrodes your eyes Picture Quote #1
