Famous quotes containing the words risk and/or management:
“Men’s hearts are cold. They are indifferent. Not all the coal that is dug warms the world.

—Mother Jones (1830–1930)

And North River, with the tributaries
Brookshire Branch and Sugar Cove Creed:
A fishy map for facile fishery....”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
