Fear
(page 5)
He who has overcome his fears will truly be free.
You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, "I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along".
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.
Fear keeps us focused on the past or worried about the future. If we can acknowledge our fear, we can realize that right now we are okay. Right now, today, we are still alive, and our bodies are working marvelously. Our eyes can still see the beautiful sky. Our ears can still hear the voices of our loved ones.
We are afraid to care too much, for fear that the other person does not care at all.
With integrity, you have nothing to fear, since you have nothing to hide. With integrity, you will do the right thing, so you will have no guilt.
America was not built on fear. America was built on courage, on imagination and an unbeatable determination to do the job at hand.
Courage is knowing what not to fear.
When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.
Some people ask why people would go into a dark room to be scared. I say they are already scared, and they need to have that fear manipulated and massaged. I think of horror movies as the disturbed dreams of a society.
Limits, like fear, is often an illusion.
Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart.
This world of ours... must avoid becoming a community of dreadful fear and hate, and be, instead, a proud confederation of mutual trust and respect.
Jealousy is the fear of comparison.
The more you can increase fear of drugs and crime, welfare mothers, immigrants and aliens, the more you control all the people.
The only fear I have is that I will wake up one day and nobody will allow me to do films. This is a fear every actor has.
You pretend to be more eccentric than you actually are because you fear you are an interchangeable cog.
Grab the broom of anger and drive off the beast of fear.
It is the perpetual dread of fear, the fear of fear, that shapes the face of a brave man.
