3 December 2020 Charles de Montesquieu I have never known any distress that an hour’s reading did not relieve.
3 December 2020 Matt Damon I’d love to be a dad. I hope I’d be great at it. That’s every man’s fear, yet his most important job.
3 December 2020 Sade Adu People are so used to having their lives filmed, they’re not even conscious of having cameras around. I still have that sort of suspicion when a camera comes out. I view it as a thing to fear.
3 December 2020 Jim Morrison We fear violence less than our own feelings. Personal, private, solitary pain is more terrifying than what anyone else can inflict.
3 December 2020 Zbigniew Brzezinski I think it is important to ask ourselves as citizens, not as Democrats attacking the administration, but as citizens, whether a world power can really provide global leadership on the basis of fear and anxiety?
3 December 2020 Hugh Jackman I was probably more scared of my high school exams than I was of the Oscars. At the time you think it’s everything and if you don’t do well, your life’s over. Opportunities are gone. So the more you do it, the less the fear is present.
3 December 2020 Louis Aragon Fear of error which everything recalls to me at every moment of the flight of my ideas, this mania for control, makes men prefer reason’s imagination to the imagination of the senses. And yet it is always the imagination alone which is at work.
3 December 2020 Wayne Dyer The components of anxiety, stress, fear, and anger do not exist independently of you in the world. They simply do not exist in the physical world, even though we talk about them as if they do.
3 December 2020 Christopher Columbus No one should fear to undertake any task in the name of our Saviour, if it is just and if the intention is purely for His holy service.
3 December 2020 Michael Buble I have a tendency to sabotage relationships I have a tendency to sabotage everything. Fear of success, fear of failure, fear of being afraid. Useless, good-for-nothing thoughts.
3 December 2020 Stevie Nicks I am pretty fearless, and you know why? Because I don’t handle fear very well I’m not a good terrified person.
3 December 2020 Lauryn Hill I had to confront my fears and master my every demonic thought about inferiority, insecurity, or the fear of being black, young, and gifted in this Western culture.
3 December 2020 Hale White When we are afraid we ought not to occupy ourselves with endeavoring to prove that there is no danger, but in strengthening ourselves to go on in spite of the danger.
3 December 2020 John Calvin Seeing that a Pilot steers the ship in which we sail, who will never allow us to perish even in the midst of shipwrecks, there is no reason why our minds should be overwhelmed with fear and overcome with weariness.
3 December 2020 Barbara Ehrenreich There is the fear, common to all English-only speakers, that the chief purpose of foreign languages is to make fun of us. Otherwise, you know, why not just come out and say it?
3 December 2020 Tony Kushner I find writing very difficult. It’s hard and it hurts sometimes, and it’s scary because of the fear of failure and the very unpleasant feeling that you may have reached the limit of your abilities.
3 December 2020 Cecil Beaton Americans have an abiding belief in their ability to control reality by purely material means… airline insurance replaces the fear of death with the comforting prospect of cash.
3 December 2020 Thomas Frank When the entertainers of the Right aren’t declaring their disgust with President Obama for groveling before foreign potentates, they’re pretending to fear him as a left-wing thug, an exemplar of what they call ‘the Chicago way.’
3 December 2020 Georges Bernanos It is the perpetual dread of fear, the fear of fear, that shapes the face of a brave man.
3 December 2020 Candace Bushnell You don’t have to do everything by the time you’re 30. Or 40. All you need is a work ethic. It’s what allows you to push through moments of disappointment and self-doubt and fear.
3 December 2020 Thomas John Watson, Sr. Follow the path of the unsafe, independent thinker. Expose your ideas to the danger of controversy. Speak your mind and fear less the label of ‘crackpot’ than the stigma of conformity.
3 December 2020 Scott Adams I think ‘Dilbert’ will remain popular as long as employees are frustrated and they fear the consequences of complaining too loudly. ‘Dilbert’ is the designated voice of discontent for the workplace. I never planned it that way. It just happened.
