Frequently Asked Questions

What does "bold" mean across this quote collection?
It shifts between personal identity and public statement. One quote describes being seen as a bold individual within a culture, while another is about making a bold claim, admitting there wasn't room to lay out the full argument, so the speaker settles for stating plainly that culture is extinct.
Are these quotes more about personality or about taking risks?
Both. There's a line about not making films merely to be seen as bold, which is about creative motive, alongside the classic proverb "Fortune favours the bold," which is about risk and reward. Readers wanting the risk-and-courage angle specifically may also like Brave quotes.
Is there a well-known saying included in this set?
