Anxiety And Fear Quotes
I don't know the meaning of life. I don't know why we are here. I think life is full of anxieties and fears and tears. It has a lot of grief in it, and it can be very grim. And I do not want to be the one who tries to tell somebody else what life is all about. To me it's a complete mystery.
Charles M. Schulz
When you’re meeting a whole lot of new people and having to do things you’re in—I’m in a constant low-level state of anxiety.

Alan Watts
...I just want to be free of the fears and anxieties and the superstitions of religion. An 'avenging GOD'? One who created Hell for those who don't believe?
