It's stasis that kills you off in the end, not ambition.
Its better to burn out than fade away.
The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.
You can conquer almost any fear if you will only make up your mind to do so. For remember, fear doesn't exist anywhere except in the mind.
There is nothing to fear but fear itself.
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.
Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.
One is never afraid of the unknown; one is afraid of the known coming to an end.
I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.
You can only be afraid of what you think you know.
Fear is pain arising from the anticipation of evil.
There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.
In Heaven, all the interesting people are missing.
It is better to be feared than loved, if you cannot be both.
Every man's life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.
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.
The constant assertion of belief is an indication of fear.
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.
Be Fearful When Others Are Greedy and Greedy When Others Are Fearful
A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic.
