But I was losing so much bone density that I would have been in grave danger. And I mean grave danger. If I had let it go just a few more years I could have broken my hip or spine just picking up my granddaughter.
Sally Field, American Actress (1946-  )
There is the danger of over preparation, of loss of spontaneity; over rehearsal is the most terrible thing you can imagine. We do have a very close association between costume and set designer, though. And the cameraman is very important, of course.
Terence Fisher, British Director (1904-1980)
To a profound pessimist about life, being in danger is not depressing.
F. Scott Fitzgerald, American Author (1896-1940)
The United States stands with our friends in Britain as they recover from today's shock of terrorism. These barbaric acts strengthen our resolve and remind us all of the danger of complacency during our continued war on terror.
Mark Foley, American Politician (1954-  )
The present danger which this country faces is at least as great as the danger which we faced during the war with Germany and Japan. Briefly stated, it is the very real danger that this country, as we know it, may cease to exist.
James Forrestal, American Public Servant (1892-1949)
Dawn was written well before 9/11. People speak a lot today about the banality of evil, but not all evil is banal. Some of it is carefully structured and well-thought-out. That's where the real danger lies.
Alan Dean Foster, Author (1946-  )
A defence in the Inquisition is of little use to the prisoner, for a suspicion only is deemed sufficient cause of condemnation, and the greater his wealth the greater his danger.
John Foxe, English Writer
He that displays too often his wife and his wallet is in danger of having both of them borrowed.
Benjamin Franklin, American Politician (1706-1790)
The ordinary man with extraordinary power is the chief danger for mankind - not the fiend or the sadist.
Erich Fromm, American Psychologist (1900-1980)
The danger of the past was that men became slaves. The danger of the future is that man may become robots.
Erich Fromm, American Psychologist (1900-1980)
I give the name violence to a boldness lying idle and enamored of danger.
Jean Genet, French Dramatist (1910-1986)
There is danger in reckless change, but greater danger in blind conservatism.
Henry George, American Economist (1839-1897)
The Hussein regime's support for terrorism, within and outside of its borders, its appetite for the world's most dangerous weapons, and its openly declared hostility to the United States were a combination that was a gathering and growing danger to our country.
Jim Gerlach, American Politician (1955-  )
Insurgents throughout Iraq continue to threaten our efforts and pose a danger to stability in the region. They fight not for their country, but rather against ours.
Paul Gillmor, American Politician (1939-2007)
But the watchful care of the parent is endless. The youth is never free from the danger of grating interference.
William Godwin, English Writer (1756-1836)
Everyone by now presumably knows about the danger of premature optimization. I think we should be just as worried about premature design - designing too early what a program should do.
Paul Graham, Scientist
Animals when in company walk in a proper and sensible manner, in single file, instead of sprawling all across the road and being of no use or support to each other in case of sudden trouble or danger.
Kenneth Grahame, Scottish Novelist (1859-1932)
If we notice a few errors in the work of a proven master, we may and even will often be correct; if we believe, however, that he is completely and utterly mistaken, we are in danger of missing his entire concept.
Franz Grillparzer, Austrian Poet (1791-1872)
The uncertainty of the danger belongs to the essence of terrorism.
Jurgen Habermas, German Philosopher (1929-  )
The state is in danger of falling into disrepute due to the evidence of its inadequate resources.
Jurgen Habermas, German Philosopher (1929-  )
