it is late & i am unsure where im going with this but “fear is the path to the dark side. fear leads to anger. anger leads to hate. hate leads to suffering.” from star wars / “i must not fear. fear is the mind killer. fear us the little death that brings total obliteration. i will face my fear. i will permit it to pass over me and through me. and when it is gone past i will turn the inner eye to see its path. where the fear has gone there will be nothing. only i will remain.” from dune / “do not be afraid; our fate cannot be taken from us. it is a gift.” from dante’s inferno / “[fear] is life’s only true opponent. only fear can defeat life. it is a clever, treacherous adversary, how well i know. it has no decency, respects no law or convention, shows no mercy. it goes for you weakest spot, which it finds with unnerving ease. it begins in your mind, always…so you must fight hard to express it. you must fight hard to shine the light of words upon it. because if you don’t, if your hear becomes a wordless darkness that you avoid, perhaps even manage to forget, you open yourself to further attacks of fear because you never truly fought the opponent who defeated you.” from the life of pi / “if a fear cannot be articulated, it can’t be conquered. and the fears locked in small brains are much too large to pass through the orifice of the mouth.” from salem’s lot. / “mastering others is strength. mastering onself makes you fearless.” by lao tzu / “is it useful to feel fear, because it prepares you for nasty events, or is it useless, because nasty events will occur whether you are frightened or not?” from a series of unfortunate events / “lovely weather so far. i don’t know how long it will last, but i’m not afraid of storms, for i’m learning how to sail my ship.” from little women / “the man who fears losing has already lost. fear cuts deeper than swords.” from a song of ice and fire / “why should i fear death? if i am, then death is not. if death is, then i am not. why should i fear that which can only exist when i do not?” by epicurus / “’fear’ the doctor said, ‘is the relinquishment of logic, the relinquishing of reasonable patterns. we yield to it or we fight it, but we cannot meet it halfway.’” from the haunting of hill house / “fear? what has a man to do with fear? chance rules our lives, and the future is all unknown. best live as we may, from day to day.” from oedipus rex………like yall know what im sayin?? im kinda going crazy rn
