If I reveal myself without worrying about how others will respond, then some will care, though others may not. But who can love me, if no one knows me? I must risk it, or live alone.

About This Quote

Life is full of risks. You take a chance when you reveal yourself, even if others don’t like your plan. If you hide behind your own mask, people won’t take you seriously. But, if you show yourself to the world, then people will care.

Even though they may not like you or your actions, they will take you seriously. You should never hold back because someone else might not like your plans. If you do, then you will always be alone in life because no one will know who you are.
