“If we want to make a discovery, we have to take a risk”
Georg von Békésy (1899–1972) Hungarian physicist
in My experiences in different laboratories, autobiographical speech by von Békésy published in Fizikai Szemle 1999/5. 166.o.
Context: If we want to make a discovery, we have to take a risk, since everything new was discovered by accident or by the fact that somebody took a chance and went ahead when there wasn't 100 percent safety for the solution.
“Staying vulnerable is a risk we have to take if we want to experience connection.”
Brené Brown (1965) US writer and professor
