The brave man is not he who feels nofear. For that were stupid and irrational. But he, whose noble soul its fears subdues, and bravely dares the danger nature shrinks from.

- Baillie, Joanna

The quintessential revolution is that of the spirit, born of an intellectual conviction of the need for change in those mental attitides and values which shape the course of a nation's development. A revolution whichaims merely at changing official policies and institutions with a view to an improvement in material conditions has little chance of genuine success. Without a revolution in spirit, the forces which had produced inequities of the old order would continue to be operative, posing a constant threat to the process of reform and regeneration. It is not enough merely to call for freedom, democracy and human rights. There has to be a united determination to persevere in the struggle, to make sacrifices in the name of enduring truths, to resist the corrupting influences of desire, ill will, ignorance, and fear.

- Kyi, Aung San Suu

The passions do very often give birth to others of a nature most contrary to their own. Thus avarice sometimes brings forth prodigality, and prodigality avarice; a man?s resolution is very often the effect of levity, and his boldness that of cowardice and fear.

- La Rochefoucauld, Fran?ois

Men! The only animal in the world to fear.

- Lawrence, D.H.

We fear things in proportion to our ignorance of them.

- Livius, Titus

Let the fear of a danger be a spur to prevent it; he that fears not, gives advantage to the danger.

- Quarles

Let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

- Roosevelt, Franklin

The more thou dost advance, the more thy feet pitfalls will meet. The Path that leadeth on is lighted by one fire- the light of daring burning in the heart. The more one dares, the more he shall obtain. The more he fears, the more that light shall pale - and that alone can guide.

- Blavatsky, H. P.

Fear is the mother of foresight.

- Taylor, Henry

Who sees all beings in his own Self, and his own Self in all beings, loses all fear.

- Upanishad, Isa
