I do not see why man should not be just as cruel as nature

Character building begins in our infancy, and continues until death.

In the blackest of your moments, wait with no fear.

No power is strong enough to be lasting if it labors under the weight of fear.

An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

It's stasis that kills you off in the end, not ambition.

Fear is pain arising from the anticipation of evil.

For a man who has done his natural duty, death is as natural as sleep.

All we have to fear is fear itself.

No one really knows why they are alive until they know what they'd die for.

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.

Death and love are the two wings that bear the good man to heaven.

A thing is not necessarily true because a man dies for it.

It is often said that before you die your life passes before your eyes. It is in fact true. It's called living.

Could any death be so horrible as birth? Or any decrepitude so awful as childhood in a happy united God-fearing family?

Fear is not an unknown emotion to us.

People living deeply have no fear of death.

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.

I believe that every single event in life happens in an opportunity to choose love over fear.

When you cease to make a contribution you begin to die.

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.
