The secret of adventure, then, is not to carefully seek it out but to travel in such a way that it finds you. To do this, you first need to overcome the protective habits of home and open yourself up to unpredictability. As you begin to practice this openness, you'll quickly discover adventure in the simple reality of a world that defies your expectations. More often than not, you'll discover that “adventure” is a decision after the fact-a way of deciphering an event or an experience that you can't quite explain.

Rolf Potts

Man needs air, man needs water, man needs food and man needs adventure also! Adventure is a medicine for the infinite boredom.

Mehmet Murat Ildan

Are wars... anything but the means whereby a nation's problems are set, where creation is stimulated - there you have adventure. But there is no adventure in heads-or-tails, in betting that the toss will come out of life or death. War is not an adventure. It is a disease. It is like typhus.

Antoine de Saint-Exupery

The great living experience for every man is his adventure into the woman. The man embraces in the woman all that is not himself, and from that one resultant, from that embrace, comes every new action.

D. H. Lawrence

I didn't start out angry. I started out a young man wanting adventure.

Andrew Vachss

If adventure has a final and all-embracing motive, it is surely this: we go out because it is our nature to go out, to climb mountains, and to paddle rivers, to fly to the planets and plunge into the depths of the oceans... When man ceases to do these things, he is no longer man.

Wilfrid Noyce

A vital difference between the professional man and a man of business is that money making to the professional man should, by virtue of his assumption, be incidental; to the businessman it is primary. Money has its limitations; while it may buy quantity, there is something beyond it and that is quality.

Frank Lloyd Wright

Well, Margaret Court was the first one, first professional woman - or maybe man - to actually take it into the gyms. She worked out on her body, she was very strong, very fast on the court.

Evonne Goolagong Cawley

The delight in gambits is a sign of chess youth... In very much the same way as the young man, on reaching his manhood years, lays aside the Indian stories and stories of adventure, and turns to the psychological novel, we with maturing experience leave off gambit playing and become interested in the less vivacious but withal more forceful manoeuvres of the position player.

Emanuel Lasker

The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure.

Christopher McCandless

But in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure.

Before I came to Bollywood, lot of people told me that here things are not very professional, but I've had no such experience.

Rakul Preet Singh

I hate 'The Professional.' It's one of the worst action/adventure movies ever made.

Shane Black

The art schools seem to be trying to turn people out as "professional." But I don't know what the word "professional" means any longer. "Professional" would be somebody who was trying to push painting to a point that nobody else could do as well as he could. That would be my ideal professional.

Lawrence Weiner

If there is no adventure in your life, it is as if you live no life! Adventure is the real soul of man; without it, He is a stub!

Mehmet Murat Ildan

I think when I first went to Man City, they weren't very professional. They were just starting out, and the men's team had just invested a lot into women's team.
