“The most serious mistakes are not being made as a result of wrong answers. The true dangerous thing is asking the wrong question.”

It is more productive to convert an opportunity into results than to solve a problem – which only restores the equilibrium of yesterday.

The computer is a moron.

The one man to distrust, however, is the man who never makes a mistake, never commits a blunder, never fails in what he tries to do. He is either a phony, or he stays with the safe, the tried, and the trivial.

Management is about human beings. Its task is to make people capable of joint performance, to make their strengths effective and their weaknesses irrelevant.

Intelligence, imagination, and knowledge are essential resources, but only effectiveness converts them into results.

You were different a dangerous smile and kind heart I was enchanted from the first moment I met you I knew something had happened that would probably follow you through every forest even carrying the fear of getting lost.

Its dangerous but you can’t surf on ripples.

The bravest are surely those who have the clearest vision of what is before them, glory and danger alike, and yet notwithstanding go out to meet it.

The most dangerous drug I know has brown eyes and a heartbeat.

In extreme danger fear feels no pity.

It’s fun to be hopelessly in love. It’s dangerous, but it’s fun.
