Fearing Quotes (page 55)

We spent time on Burma and the need for the military regime there to understand that they shouldn't fear the voices of people. And yet they do. George W. Bush
As women glide from their twenties to thirties, Shazzer argues, the balance of power subtly shifts. Even the most outrageous minxes lose their nerve, wrestling with the first twinges of existential angst: fears of dying alone and being found three weeks later half-eaten by an Alsatian. Helen Fielding
George R. R. Martin quote: "Even the bravest men fear death and maiming"

Jeanette Winterson quote: "The world is surely wide enough to walk without fear."
The world is surely wide enough to walk without fear. Jeanette Winterson
There are moments of despair that come sometimes, when night sets in and a white fog presses against the windows. Then our house changes its shape, rears up and becomes a place of despair. Then fear and rage run simply--and the thought of Death as a friend. This is the simplest of thoughts, that Death must come when we call, although he is a god. Stevie Smith

The simple fact is that we live in a world of conflict and opposites because we live in a world of boundaries. Since every boundary line is also a battle line, here is the human predicament: the firmer one’s boundaries, the more entrenched are one’s battles. The more I hold onto pleasure, the more I necessarily fear pain. The more I pursue goodness, the more I am obsessed with evil. The more I seek success, the more I must dread failure. The harder I cling to life, the more terrifying death... Ken Wilber
Alain de Botton quote: "What kills us isn't one big thing, but thousands of tiny..."
What kills us isn't one big thing, but thousands of tiny obligations we can't turn down for fear of disappointing others. Alain de Botton
The world was old and ended: but you and I were gay; Round us in antic order their crippled vices came— Lust that had lost its laughter, fear that had lost its shame. Gilbert K. Chesterton
George R. R. Martin quote: "Maester Luwin says there’s nothing in dreams that a man need..."
Maester Luwin says there’s nothing in dreams that a man need fear.” “There is,” said Jojen. George R. R. Martin
The inability to live in the present lies in the fear of leaving the sheltered position of anticipation or memory, and so of admitting that this is the only life that one is ever likely (heavenly intervention aside) to live. Alain de Botton
When you awaken love and laughter, your mind let's go of fear and anxiety, and your happy spirit becomes the healing balm that transforms every aspect of your human experience. Barbara Kingsolver
I testify to you that our promised blessings are beyond measure. Though the storm clouds may gather, though the rains may pour down upon us, our knowledge of the gospel and our love of our Heavenly Father and of our Savior will comfort and sustain us and bring joy to our hearts as we walk uprightly and keep the commandments. My beloved brothers and sisters, fear not. Be of good cheer. The future is as bright as your faith. Thomas S. Monson
