  I hope that my achievements in life shall be these - that I will have fought for what was right and fair, that I will have risked for that which mattered, and that I will have given help to those who were in need that I will have left the earth a better place for what I've done and who I've been.
 ~risk sayings by C. Hoppe

  Poverty, race, ethnicity and immigration status are not in themselves determinative of student achievement. Demography is not destiny. The amount of melanin in a student's skin, the home country of her antecedents, the amount of money in the family bank account, are not the inexorable determinants of academic success. The evidence introduced at trial demonstrates that these negative life experiences can be overcome by public schools with sufficient resources well deployed. It is the clear policy of the state, as formulated by the Regents and S.E.D. [State Education Department], that all children can attain the substantive knowledge and master the skills expected of high school graduates. The court finds that the city's at-risk children are capable of seizing the opportunity for a sound basic education if they are given sufficient resources
 ~inspirational sayings about Education quotes by Leland DeGrasse

  A man's age is something impressive, it sums up his life: maturity reached slowly and against many obstacles, illnesses cured, griefs and despairs overcome, and unconscious risks taken; maturity formed through so many desires, hopes, regrets, forgotten things, loves. A man's age represents a fine cargo of experiences and memories.
 ~risk quotes by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Wartime Writings 1939-1944, translated from French by Norah Purcell

  Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark; professionals built the Titanic.
 ~famous quotes about Risk by Author Unknown

  The average man's judgment is so poor, he runs a risk every time he uses it.
 ~risk sayings by E.W. Howe

  When people say to me: How do you do so many things? I often answer them, without meaning to be cruel: How do you do so little? It seems to me that people have vast potential. Most people can do extraordinary things if they have the confidence or take the risks. Yet most people don't. They sit in front of the telly and treat life as if it goes on forever.
 ~risk sayings by Philip Adams

  If you're never scared or embarrassed or hurt, it means you never take any chances.
 ~risk quotes by Julia Sorel (Rosalyn Drexler), See How She Runs, 1978

  Our government has become too responsive to trivial or ephemeral concerns, often at the expense of more important concerns or an erosion of our liberty, and it has made policy priorities more dependent on where TV journalists happen to point their cameras.... As a nation we have lost our sense of tragedy, a recognition that bad things happen to good people. A nation that expects the government to prevent churches from burning, to control the price of bread or gasoline, to secure every job, and to find some villain for every dramatic accident, risks an even larger loss of life and liberty.
 ~famous quotes about Government by William A. Niskanen, For a Less Responsive Government, Cato Policy Report, 1996
