"What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?"

Business newspaper intern reporting is such that I get assigned a lot of the more cut-and-dry business or people profile stories that require a few interviews and no investigation. I prefer some spice in my life, successfully investigating the more shaky, "watchdog"-type stories without making anyone mad... but I don't get gifts for doing those. Businesses, especially new businesses, really like when newspapers write advocacy articles about them. And today I recieved my first gift for doing one of those. A paperweight with that quotation. I guess there's something to be said for making someone's day with an article, rather than ruining it.
