Exposure Quotations
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. The fearful are caught as often as the bold.
Helen Keller
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.
Helen Keller
But I work harder now because I have so much more exposure. And actually the harder you work as a writer, the better you get at it. It's like anything else. It's a muscle you have to exercise. I write more now than ever.
Ron White
Constant exposure to dangers will breed contempt for them.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca
It is still an open question, however, as to what extent exposure really injures a performer.
Harry Houdini
There are stars out there who would die to have this much exposure.
Clay Aiken
I'm really happy that I got to work with such fresh talent. In a day when record companies are not particularly good at encouraging young, talented songwriters to come forward and get exposure, I think it's important to give tomorrow's songwriters the opportunity.
Robin Gibb
But the exposure we got by doing the stint with Nine Inch Nails brought us a lot of attention.
Daisy Berkowitz
I had an older brother who was very interested in literature, so I had an early exposure to literature, and and theater. My father sometimes would work in musical comedies.
Francis Ford Coppola
