Oh God, I pray I'll never get AIDS. So many friends have it. Some have died, others won't last much longer. I'm terrified that I'll be next. Immediately after each time I have sex I think, 'Suppose that was the one? Suppose the virus is now in my body? I jump in the shower and scrub myself clean, although I know it's useless and anyway it's too late.

The enemy is fear. We think it is hate; but, it is fear.

It is weakness which breeds fear, and fear breeds distrust.

I think people resist freedom because they're afraid of the unknown. But it's ironic, That unknown was once very well known. It's where our souls belong.The only solution is to confront them - confront yourself - with the greatest fear imaginable.

Man cannot possess anything as long as he fears death. But to him who does not fear it, everything belongs. If there was no suffering, man would not know his limits, would not know himself.
