Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.

Fear is death, fear is sin, fear is hell, fear is unrighteousness, and fear is wrong life. All the negative thoughts and ideas that are in the world have proceeded from this evil spirit of fear.

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.

If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed.

We fear violence less than our own feelings. Personal, private, solitary pain is more terrifying than what anyone else can inflict.

People fear death even more than pain. It's strange that they fear death. Life hurts a lot more than death. At the point of death, the pain is over. Yeah, I guess it is a friend.
