The fruition of beauty is no chance of hit or miss... it is inevitable as life.
I was in a beauty contest once. I not only came in last, I was hit in the mouth by Miss Congeniality.
Reality has no security and that is its beauty. Life has no security and that is its beauty. Because there is no security, there is adventure. Because the future is unknown, nobody knows what is going to happen the next moment. That's why there is challenge, growth, adventure. If you miss adventure, you miss all.

Golf gives no margin: either you win or you fail. You cannot hedge; you cannot bluff; you cannot give a stop order. One chance is given you, and you hit or miss. There is nothing more rigid in life. And it is this ultra and extreme rigidity that makes golf so intensely interesting.
I had my chance.' He said it, retiring from a lifetime of wanting. 'I had my chance, and sometimes in life, there are no second chances. You look at what you have, not what you miss, and you move forward.

Why hit a conservative shot? When you miss it, you are in just as much trouble as when you miss a bold one.
I believe inner beauty is beauty in its truest form. When we nurture ourselves, it brings an inevitable, positive transformation.
I don't want anyone to ever put himself or herself in a box of, "I lost my second chance!" Because life brings you ebbs and flows, and if you miss out on this second chance, guess what, you're going to get another one if you decide that you're ready to have one.
Here's a phrase that apparently the airlines simply made up: near miss. They say that if 2 planes almost collide, it's a near miss. Bullshit, my friend. It's a near hit! A collision is a near miss. [WHAM! CRUNCH!] "Look, they nearly missed!" "Yes, but not quite.
More people will die from hit-or-miss eating than from hit-and-run driving.
The cardinal rule for hosting the Miss USA and Miss Universe beauty pageants is to expect the unexpected.
