Risk Quotes

New York public schools are desperate for good teachers. Newspaper says they're begging for them. Dad, every year I tell my students to go for what they want in life — dream big, take risks. It's time I start living up to my own words.

American Dream

Push it to the limit,
Walk along the razor's edge
Don't look down just keep your head
Or you'll be finished
Open up the limit,
Past the point of no return,
You've reached the top,
But still you gotta learn how to keep it

Every time you get in your car, hell, every time you leave your home you take a risk something bad could happen. But you do it anyway, you know, to make yourself better, to make the world better, sometimes just to have fun.

It's better to push something away that's slipping
Than to risk being dragged down.

Meaningful Quotes

— Thomas Shelby was a tunneller. His demand is rather amusing. He has asked that the Colonial Office grant him an Empire export licence. And specifically a licence covering India, Malay Peninsula, Canada and Russia. He plans to transport certain manufactured goods from Birmingham to the Poplar Docks.

— Sir, with the greatest respect, Thomas Shelby is a murdering, cut-throat, mongrel, gangster.
— And yet, the tunnels were dug beneath our feet to silence the guns pointed at our heads.

You step outside, you risk your life. You take a drink of water, you risk your life. And nowadays you breathe, and you risk your life. Every moment now you don't have a choice. The only thing you can choose is what you're risking it for.

— Well, you said the more we bet, the better the odds.
— I did say that.

German proverbs and sayings

We are healing, but it's killing us inside
Can we take a chance when faith and fear collide?
We can make it, step out and take it
We can't live feeling so numb
How long can we hold on? Can we hold on?
Hold on!

– I just want you to think long term, all right? Be smart. Every place in Manhattan, they all keep books, all right?

– Look, this is what I love about you. You think about the big picture. That's great, okay? But it's not me. I don't play the game straight up, and then if I lose, go get some real work or something, okay? I see a mark, I take him down… That's what I do. That's the way I live.
– I know. Listen, you're the guy who taught me all the angles. But I'm not the guy with my nose open right now.
