Roll the dice<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

if you\u2019re going to try, go all the
\nway.
\notherwise, don\u2019t even start.
\nif you\u2019re going to try, go all the
\nway.
\nthis could mean losing girlfriends,
\nwives, relatives, jobs and
\nmaybe your mind.
\ngo all the way.
\nit could mean not eating for 3 or 4 days.
\nit could mean freezing on a
\npark bench.
\nit could mean jail,
\nit could mean derision,
\nmockery,
\nisolation.
\nisolation is the gift,
\nall the others are a test of your
\nendurance, of
\nhow much you really want to
\ndo it.
\nand you\u2019ll do it
\ndespite rejection and the worst odds
\nand it will be better than
\nanything else
\nyou can imagine.
\nif you\u2019re going to try,
\ngo all the way.
\nthere is no other feeling like
\nthat.
\nyou will be alone with the gods
\nand the nights will flame with
\nfire.
\ndo it, do it, do it.
\ndo it.
\nall the way
\nall the way.
\nyou will ride life straight to
\nperfect laughter, it\u2019s
\nthe only good fight
\nthere is.<\/p>\n

Arunca zarul<\/p>\n

Daca ai de gand sa incerci
\nmergi pana la capat..
\naltminteri, nici macar sa nu incepi.
\nDaca ai de gand sa incerci
\nmergi pana la capat.
\nasta ar putea insemna sa pierzi iubite,
\nsotii, rude, munca si
\npoate chiar mintile.
\nMergi pana la capat.
\nPoate fi sa nu mananci 3 sau 4 zile,
\npoate fi sa tremuri de frig
\npe o banca in parc.
\nPoate fi inchisoare,
\npoate fi luare luare in ras,
\nbatjocura,
\nizolare.
\nIzolarea este darul,
\ntoate celelalte sunt un test
\nal rabdarii tale,
\nal staruintei
\ncat de mult vrei sa o faci cu adevarat
\nsi o vei face
\nin ciuda respingerii si a celor mai nefavorabile sanse
\nsi va fi mult mai bine decat orice
\naltceva
\niti poti imagina.
\nDaca ai de gand sa incerci
\nmergi pana la capat.
\nNu exista alt sentiment de comparat.
\nVei fi singur cu zeii
\nsi noptile vor arde in flacari.
\nDa-i bataie !
\nPana la capat
\nPana la capat.
\nVei calari viata drept
\npana la rasul perfect,
\neste singura lupta adevarata
\ncare exista.<\/p>\n
