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

I thought I’d post this quote just in case anyone out there (like me) is thinking security would be nice to have in this economy. 

Have an adventurous day!
