Quotations regarding 'Risk'

Choose a letter: 
It is always sound business to take any obtainable net gain, at any cost and at any risk to the rest of the community.
Thorstein Veblen, American Economist (1857-1929)
We've had risk assessments performed by Harvard University, which said that even if we did have a small number of cases in this country that the likelihood of it spreading or getting into any kind of human health problem is very, very small.
Ann Veneman, American Public Servant (1949-  )
But the fact of the matter is that all scientific evidence would show, based upon what we know about this disease, that muscle cuts - that is, the meat of the animal itself - should not cause any risk to human health.
Ann Veneman, American Public Servant (1949-  )
I have to say that in this particular cow that we're dealing with, those parts of the cow were removed, and so we don't think there's any risk or very negligible risk to human health with this particular incident.
Ann Veneman, American Public Servant (1949-  )
Where do you find the strength to brave a barrage of enemy fire and to bring your wounded friends to safety at great risk to your own life? Conviction.
Guy Verhofstadt, Belgian Statesman (1953-  )
Democracy is an extraordinary adventure. It's difficult, full of daring and risk and danger. But it's the greatest gift we have.
Jon Voight, American Actor (1938-  )
We have a natural right to make use of our pens as of our tongue, at our peril, risk and hazard.
Voltaire, French Writer (1694-1778)
It is better to risk saving a guilty man than to condemn an innocent one.
Voltaire, French Writer (1694-1778)
Look at Iraq; look at Afghanistan, where at great personal physical risk people have gone to the polls and have rejected the appeal from Bin Laden and his allies to stay at home.
Gijs de Vries, Dutch Politician (1956-  )
If information ends up in the wrong hands, the lives of people very often are immediately at risk.
Gijs de Vries, Dutch Politician (1956-  )
Life is inherently risky. There is only one big risk you should avoid at all costs, and that is the risk of doing nothing.
Denis Waitley, American Writer
Any Congressional agreement of an arbitrary time table to bring our troops home before we have accomplished our mission is unacceptable and could potentially increase the risk to our soldiers.
James T. Walsh, American Politician (1947-  )
You have to risk failure to succeed. The important thing is not to make one single mistake that will jeopardize the future.
An Wang, American Businessman (1920-1990)
The greatest risk is really to take no risk at all. You've got to go out there, jump off the cliff, and take chances.
Patrick Warburton, American Actor (1964-  )
It's also that comedians don't have the kind of narcissism that actors have. They're writers who perform their own material. It's more interesting. And they're sexy because they risk more. Stand-up comedians risk more than anyone.
Rachel Weisz, British Actress (1971-  )
Col. Shaffer is prohibited by his lawyer from talking. He's at great risk. They want to take away his pay and his health care benefits so they can hold it over his head and not allow him to talk while he's under suspension. This is not America.
Curt Weldon, American Politician (1947-  )
Of course risk-taking does not always pay off, but it's a lot of fun!
Mary Wesley, British Novelist (1912-2002)
In the face of severe partisan divisions, a still floundering economy, and two foreign wars, 'yes we can' is at risk of becoming this generation's 'a chicken in every pot.' That is, a punchline rather than a political affirmation.
Thomas J. Whalen, -
Successful organizations, including the Military, have learned that the higher the risk, the more necessary it is to engage everyone's commitment and intelligence.
Margaret J. Wheatley, American Writer
Almost all Iraqis with any previous experience in the intelligence business are Sunni Arab, increasing the risk of penetration of the new intelligence apparatus by the insurgency.
