If we have been pleased with life, we should not be displeased with death, since it comes from the hand of the same master.
In Heaven, all the interesting people are missing.
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.
It is the job of thinking people not to be on the side of the executioners.
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.
Our strength lies in our intensive attacks and our barbarity...After all, who today remembers the genocide of the Armenians?
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.
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.
I do not see why man should not be just as cruel as nature
When you cease to make a contribution you begin to die.
No one really knows why they are alive until they know what they'd die for.
I could die for you. But I couldn't, and wouldn't, live for you.
All we have to fear is fear itself.
Fear not death for the sooner we die, the longer we shall be immortal.
It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.
The constant assertion of belief is an indication of fear.
In the blackest of your moments, wait with no fear.
Could any death be so horrible as birth? Or any decrepitude so awful as childhood in a happy united God-fearing family?
He who controls the past controls the future. He who controls the present controls the past.
If a man hasn't discovered something he will die for, he isn't fit to live.
There is nothing to fear but fear itself.
