There is no try. Always do what you are afraid to do. Before the beginning of great brilliance, there must be chaos. Before a brilliant person begins something great, they must look foolish to the crowd. Elbert Hubbard He who asks is a fool for five minutes, but he who does not ask is a fool forever.
Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent.
The wise are not wise because they make no mistakes. They are wise because they correct their mistakes as soon as they recognize them. There is nothing so stupid or dangerous or painful that people won't eagerly do it, if by doing it they will make others believe they are better or stronger or more honorable. Orson Scott Card, The Worthing Chronicle Nothing in human affairs is worth any great anxiety. An apology for the Devil.
