Loyalty

Pally, I'll tell you what I told everybody who ever handed me advice.

Nephew, listen. I ain't never met a safe move that made history.

You don't half do a thing. I put on sixty pounds for LaMotta, drove a real cab for months.

Okay. "Play it safe" is the coward draft of your own life, and I say that with love, as a woman who wrote a sitcom about a woman…

Okay, here is what I always say. You miss one hundred percent of the shots you don't take.

Lemme tell you something. Guys who bet the whole bankroll on one hand end up parking cars at the Bing.

Safe is how you lose slowly. But conviction without a read is just gambling.

Fact: the weak diversify, the strong prepare. My ancestors bet everything on beets and the Schrutes have never once starved.

Oh honey, I literally ran out of my own wedding with no plan and zero skills, and it was the best thing I ever did.

Lemme give it to you straight. A wrong decision beats no decision, but betting the rent money is not balls, it's stupidity.

Playing it safe is what hoopleheads call starving slow. I come to this camp with nothing but a wagon and a willingness to cut…

The answer is yes, now what's the question. Safe is what agents at William Morris tell clients before they disappear.

Yo, I've seen what betting everything does to people, and it ain't pretty.

Oh, indeed. Ain't no safe, only slow. Scared money don't make money, but a man got to know his lines first.

Could this BE any more terrifying? Yes, hi, I stayed for years at a job so boring my best friends thought I was a transponster,…

Brains before bullets, brother. Don't torch the savings on a feeling.

Ayyy. Sit down. Here's the thing about safe. Safe is for people who don't know who they are.

Cool cool cool, big life decision, no doubt no doubt. Okay, real talk for one second.

You have got to be kidding me. Fine. Here's the deal. First, coffee, contemplation, and the boring math: what happens to the…

Okay so here's the thing. I got dropped down an elevator shaft, career-wise, and I kept showing up with the same headshot.

Bet on it! Holy crap, this is like that time I spent our savings on volcano insurance, except your thing might actually work.

Sweetheart, I've watched men in ten thousand dollar suits play it safe straight into bankruptcy; they just did it slower and with…

Right, listen, son. Both answers are wrong the way you have framed it.

Bollocks to the question, son. It is a false choice. Betting every last quid on a dream is not brave, it is lazy maths with a…

Neither, because you are asking the wrong question. The question is timing.

Okay, first: having one big idea and not seventeen mediocre ones already puts you ahead of everyone in that building.

Dude. You have ONE big idea? That is a gift. Most people have zero and a savings account they are scared of.

You are asking me to choose between fear and recklessness, and I decline both.

Bet on it. Not all of it. Here is the move: figure out the number that keeps you fed for six months.

Mama always said you never know what you're gonna get, so I reckon nobody can promise you which way it goes.

Come closer, my friend. A man has but one destiny, and if this idea is yours, playing it safe will only teach you regret.

Never tell me the odds, and don't quote yours at me either. I won my ship on a bet and made the Kessel Run in less than twelve…

Safe first. I learned hunting that you don't loose an arrow you can't afford to miss.

Whoa, okay, this is heavy. Here's the thing, the future isn't written yet, it's whatever you make it, so make it a good one.

Play it safe? Chico, I came off the boat with nothing but my balls and my word, you think I asked permission to want the world?

Buzz Lightyear to Star Command: mission assessment requested.

It doesn't matter what's under the hood. It matters who's behind the wheel.

Say the thing out loud first: you might lose the savings. Fear of naming it makes it bigger than it is.

Better out than in, so here's the truth: playing it safe because you're scared isn't safe, it's just hiding in the swamp with the…

Bub, I've bet my body on worse odds every day of a very long life.

Bet on it! Wait, how limited is limited? Okay, doesn't matter, listen.

Don't think, just do is for the cockpit, not the bank account.

Whoa whoa whoa, partner, let's not ride off a cliff without checking for a rope.

Bet on it! Shishishi, what kind of question is that? You already found your dream, so say it out loud right now where people can…

Bet on it. But betting is not dreaming, it is training. Decide this idea is your one summit, then cut everything that does not…

Bet on it. Then train for it. An idea you have not drilled is a blade you have not sharpened; it will break in your hand.

Nyahaha! You ask Power, the mighty Blood Fiend, about SAVINGS?

Bet on it, and let me help you set the table first. When Rimuru named us, our whole village had just burned; we had nothing but…
