If you don't have a voice that forces you back to basics, you're a dangerous person. Or to put it another way: You're at risk, and the people with you are at risk. I'm not a daredevil. I don't fly without a safety net.

But risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.

It's just you and the other guy, and your job is to get him out of there, to outscore him in the best sense of it.
