There is no hope unmingled with fear, and no fear unmingled with hope.
Don't give in to your fears. If you do, you won't be able to talk to your heart.
If you are afraid of being lonely, don't try to be right.
A man who fears suffering is already suffering from what he fears.
On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done just as easily lying down.
All we have to fear is fear itself.
An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.
It's not that I'm afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
My feet is my only courage
When you cease to make a contribution you begin to die.
It is often said that before you die your life passes before your eyes. It is in fact true. It's called living.
The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.
Fear is not an unknown emotion to us.
A coward dies a thousand deaths... a soldier dies but once.
I do not see why man should not be just as cruel as nature
Character building begins in our infancy, and continues until death.
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
Absolute silence leads to sadness. It is the image of death.
Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second's encounter with God and with eternity.
For a man who has done his natural duty, death is as natural as sleep.
No power so effectually robs the mind of all its powers of acting and reasoning as fear.
