One is never afraid of the unknown; one is afraid of the known coming to an end.

It's not that I'm afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens.

I do not see why man should not be just as cruel as nature

If we have been pleased with life, we should not be displeased with death, since it comes from the hand of the same master.

If you die you're completely happy and your soul somewhere lives on. Im not afraid of dying. Total peace after death, becoming someone else is the best hope I've got.

The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be.

The constant assertion of belief is an indication of fear.

It's stasis that kills you off in the end, not ambition.

There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.

All we have to fear is fear itself.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
