About This Quote
The true cost of following your dreams isn’t what you sacrifice when you chase them, it’s what you lose when you don't. The true cost of chasing your dreams is not the fear of failing but the fear of never trying at all. This quote came from the movie Rocky, where Rocky Balboa sacrificed his dream for his family's safety. However, in the end, he chose to pursue his dream despite the risk that he would not be able to follow it anymore.
