Fear Quotes - Page 55

Courage is not the absence of Fear, but the ability to act in spite of fear!

Listen to the sadness,the echoes in my mind,the place where I usually hide,but now I cannot find.Why had it happened?What had I done?Where was I going?Now I'm on the run.Hiding from the echoes,the pounding in my ears,the beatings getting louder,it isn't death, I fear!

Anthony T.Hincks

Fear produces action, but would never create followers

Harrish Sairaman

Too often it’s about what stands before us, not what stands within us.

Craig D. Lounsbrough

...you have to keep things in perspective, even when you are in the middle if a personal crisis. Fear breeds fear and worry builds upon worry. You can't stop feelings of grief, remorse, guilt, anger, and fear that wash over you during difficult times, but you can recognize them as pure emotional responses, and then manage them so that they don't dictate your actions.

Nick Vujicic

Let's not be afraid...there is always a step after the last step.

Hubert Haddad

My life is too often driven by the fear of the next moment verses focusing on the privilege that I have the next moment.

Craig D. Lounsbrough

You push forward, you fight the demons, you keep moving. Fear tries to paralyze you, to keep you from moving. It stops success, it stops progress - when you do things afraid, you're still accomplishing your goals, only you're doing it knowing that you are truly conquering the Everest in your life.

Rachel Van Dyken

My whole life I've been telling myself, "don't be afraid". And it is only now that I'm realizing how stupid that is. Don't be afraid. Like saying "don't move out of the way when someone tries to punch you" or "don't flinch at the heat of a fire" or "don't blink". Don't be human. I'm afraid and you're afraid and we're all always going to be afraid, because that's the point. What I should be telling myself is "be afraid, but do it anyway". Live anyway.

Unknown

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.

Frank Herbert

Not until your heart and mind comes into a total agreement for the approval of your true purpose on earth, you shall least unleash your full energy and true strength to accomplish your true mission with enthusiasm and full tenacity.

Ernest Agyemang Yeboah

Your most important fight will be the ones that you knew knew couldn't win but you fought as hard as you could anyway.

Brent M. Jones

Kill your fear, and start something! God needs people for greater works, but fear always tells them how dangerous it is to take a step!

Ernest Agyemang Yeboah

Lupe would have a lot to say about this. I can almost hear her gravelly voice in my head. There is no hate without fear, she'd say. Hate is fear crystallized, fear objectified. We hate what threatens our selves, our dreams, our plans, our freedom, our place in the world, our place in the hearts of the people we love. We fear first. Then we hate.And I know what I would say to her in response. Lupe, I'd say. My troubles are just beginning.

Paullina Simons

Fear is no crime. But acting from fear is. Know that you're going to lose everything one day, whether you fear to lose it or not.

Adam Burch

Life is full of challenges. In the end, it's getting up that pulls us through the dark days. So we can admire the sunset.

Azelene Williams

The greatest fear of my life turned into the most relaxation moment when I realized ‘I am not alone in this.

Bhavik Sarkhedi

Life is full of challenges. In the end it's getting up that pulls us through the dark day's. So that we can admire the sunset

Azelene Williams

It's strange how quickly the significance of of a certain smell can change, depending on what path it decides to take through the brain. It's strange how close love and fear live to each other.

Fredrik Backman

Phobologic discipline is comprised of twenty-eight exercises, each focusing upon a separate nexus of the nervous system. The five primaries are the knees and hams, lungs and heart, loins and bowels, the lower back, and the girdle of the shoulders, particularly the trapezius muscles, which yoke the shoulder to the neck.tA secondary nexus, for which the Lakedaemonians have twelve more exercises, is the face, specifically the muscles of the jaw, the neck and the four ocular constrictors around the eye sockets. These nexuses are termed by the Spartans phobosynakteres, fear accumulators.tFear spawns in the body, phonologic science teaches, and must be combated there. For once the flesh is seized, a phobokyklos, or loop of fear, may commence, feeding upon itself, mounting into a “runaway” of terror. Put the body into a state of phobia, fearlessness, the Spartans believe, and the mind will follow.

Steven Pressfield

We can become so cruel and so selfish when we are afraid.

Anne Perry

If it is true, as God says, that we are as we think, we risk becoming what we most fear if our fear is stronger than our love.

Ron Brackin

When some women felt fear, they covered it with an iron grate of courage, I thought. Men might be dangerous, but they were very often unperceptive. If fear only rumbled through a woman’s soul and glittered through her eyes, then perhaps the man she feared would not be aware it was there at all. He might even think that she was entirely confident, dauntless. He might believe her veneer of bravery.

Kelsey Brickl

Why is it we want so badly to memorialize ourselves? Even while we're still alive. We wish to assert our existence, like dogs peeing on fire hydrants. We put on display our framed photographs, our parchment diplomas, our silver-plated cups; we monogram our linen, we carve our names on trees, we scrawl them on washroom walls. It's all the same impulse. What do we hope from it? Applause, envy, respect? Or simply attention, of any kind we can get?At the very least we want a witness. We can't stand the idea of our own voices falling silent finally, like a radio running down.

Margaret Atwood

You have dwelt overmuch upon pain. Pain is a swift distress; it ends and is forgotten. Without memory and fear pain is nothing, a contradiction to be heeded, a warning to be taken. Without pain what would life become? Pain is the master only of craven men. It is in man's power to rule it.

H.G.Wells

Reality never comes as a problem. It is only the ideas about reality that comes as a problem.

Osho

Renunciation is dropping the fear, anger, respect, and disrespect but continuously radiating unconditional love for everyone.

Amit Ray

Face your fear and wipe your tears.

Darhower J.M.

What is it that you want to do, or put out into this world that is greater than your fear?

Eileen Anglin

Yes, we live, or we're given the chance to, at least, but sometimes living is hard and complicated because of fear.

Adam Silvera

In a polished surface of metal I happen to notice my reflected face; it wears a pale, beaten lonely look, eyes looking out at nothing with an expression of fear, frightened and lonely in a nightmare world. Something, I don’t know what, makes me think of my childhood; I remember myself as a schoolchild sitting at a hard wooden desk, and then as a little girl with thick, fair, wind-tossed hair, feeding the swans in a park. And it seems both strange and sad to me that all those childish years were spent in preparation for this – that, forgotten by everybody, with a beaten face, I should serve machinery in a place far away from the sun.

Anna Kavan

A life that chooses not to grow is a life that died long before it ever lived.

Craig D. Lounsbrough

If you're scared, do something.

Elizabeth Wein

To spin the tale with great flourish but never live the tale is the power of vision strangled to fiction by the fiction of fear.

Craig D. Lounsbrough

It’s natural to avoid the things we fear. Seeking out what terrifies me seems insane on a certain level, but more and more, the longer I’m alive, I find myself drawn to my most intense feelings, both good and bad. It seems that they are screaming out to me for a reason and that I have to know what they’re trying to say.

Page Turner

I do hate him. But I also love him. In the end, aren’t they the very same thing? Don’t they both take a back seat to what you fear?

Hank Early

As the saying goes, "Argue for your limitations and you get to keep them." Why would I want to keep my limitations?

Elizabeth Gilbert

Too often we make it more about what stands before us, and we miss all that stands within us.

Craig D. Lounsbrough

If you can’t beat fear, just do it scared.

Glennon Doyle Melton

Selfishness comes from too little self-love, not too much, as we compensate for our lack. There's no such thing as caring for the self too much, just as there's no such thing as too much genuine affection for others. Our world suffers from too little self-love and too much judgment, insecurity, fear, and mistrust. If we all cared about ourselves more, most of these ills would disappear.

Anita Moorjani

Ignorance is my refusal to think outside the box of my fears.

Craig D. Lounsbrough

I start to count. This is the important part. I have to count right. Not too fast, nor too slow. All the way to one hundred. It must be spoken aloud, without interruption. Whispering is acceptable; the count keeps my wolf to the Dark Wood. It keeps me on safety’s slender path.

Michael F. Stewart

Boredom is fear's patience. Fear doesn't want to exaggerate. Only on occasion--and fear considers this very important--does it want to know how things stand with me.

Herta Müller

But fear is no fit means to measure anyone, for fools have no fear, or so I've heard it said.

Cameron Dokey

All my life I have known fear. But I have acted in spite of it. I urge you to do the same. Your father used to say that it is preferable to die rather than to live fearing death.

Karen Essex

She’d passed the fear barrier, and she’d lived, and she’d discovered not certain death, as she’d imagined, but impossible splendor. What other beautiful things had fear been hiding from her? What else had the curse long kept her from discovering? For the first time in a long time, she wanted to find out.

Krystal Sutherland

The old fear was there, the grapnel anchor lodged in her chest, the thing that wanted to pull her back away from the edge and whisper no, no, no. Yet there was a new thing: a lure. Something down in the water thatwhispered yes, yes, yes. Go forward, onward, into the unknown. It felt like something between destruction and thrill

Krystal Sutherland

As she fell, Esther wasn’t worried about being blown off course and plummeting into the rocks below. She wasn’t worried about hitting the shallows and pin diving to the ocean floor and shattering her spine. She wasn’t even worried about Cthulhu. (Okay, maybe a little.) What she worried about was Eugene’s willingness to jump. The way he glanced down at the water far below and looked at it like it was home. The way he stepped lightly from the cliff’s edge, and the way he fell through the air faster than she did, dragged down by earth’s magnetic field. The way he flickered in the sunlight as he hit the water, the same way Tyler Durden flashed on-screen four times before you saw him solidly. Foreshadowing the twist to come. Eugene was afraid of demons, and monsters, and above all the dark, but he was not afraid of death. That scared her more than anything.

Krystal Sutherland

Esther supposed, as they held each other under a threadbare carpet of stars, that this was how it must always feel in the beginning. Yet even there, next to him, the most excellent person in the universe, she couldn’t stop herself from thinking that love was a pitcher plant. Sweet with nectar on the outside, but once you caught the scent and took the plunge, it ate you whole.Soul and all.

Krystal Sutherland

Centre yourself. Fear will get you killed as easily as a weapon.

Sarah J Maas

Overcome your problems as they arise. Do not live in fear of the next bad thing in your life. Enjoy your time now and trust that you have the strength to defeat every problem that comes your way in the future.

Avina Celeste

I tell myself I am brave and yet, I still fear change. I guess it’s time to face that fear.

Avina Celeste

A stink. A stench. A foulness in her mind, dreadful and unforgiving. A compost of horrible ideas and rotted thoughts that made her want to take our her brain and wash it.

Terry Pratchett

The problem with fear, though, is that it isn’t any one thing. Fear has a whole taxonomy—anxiety, dread, panic, foreboding—and you could be braced for one form and completely fall apart facing another.

Sebastian Junger

There is an evil creeping insideThe darkness has a firm hold on meThere is a desire burning withinAmbition seeks to replace the air I breatheThere is a voice, relentless voice in my headMy peace has abandoned meThere is nothing but lonelinessA hollow place I can't traceA void filled with nothing but space A sorrow with which no one can relateI'm just an innocent girl longing for tranquillityBut I'm fading awayFear has taken over me

Evy Michaels

My dear cousin has a very odd relationship with fear -- though mostly she's too busy to be bothered with it.

Jim Butcher

People have always looked to the horizon and feared that which they did not understand. Initially, this horizon was the edge of the forest. Then, when forests became better explored and their dangers were realized as not actually being that serious, human attention turned toward the darkness of the sea. Then the sea became better explored, and the new horizon became the vastness of space. And now, with space getting ever better explored, a new horizon appears. . . in the form of the horrors humanity is about to unleash on itself.

Matt Kaplan

Remember, son, you're most afraid when you can think of no one but yourself.

Donna Lynn Hess

No one conquers fear easily, Robert. It takes a brave heart to win great battles.
