Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood.
Nothing gives a fearful man more courage than another’s fear.
No man is liberated from fear who dare not see his place in the world as it is; no man can achieve the greatness of which he is capable until he has allowed himself to see his own littleness.
Never fear quarrels, but seek hazardous adventures.[Ne craignez pas les occasions et cherchez les aventures.]
Neither a man nor a crowd nor a nation can be trusted to act humanely or to think sanely under the influence of a great fear.
My love of heights is greater than my fear of falling.
Men go to far greater lengths to avoid what they fear than to obtain what they desire.
Men fear wanderers for they have no rules.
Men being moved by two chief passions, love and fear.[Gli uomini sono spinti da due cose principali; o dallo amore, o dal timore.]
Man can be master of nothing while he fears death, but he who does not fear it possesses all.[Ничем не может владеть человек, пока он боится смерти. А кто не боится ее, тому принадлежит всё.]
Make friends with fear, because it will not go away, and it will destroy you if left uncontrolled.
Luck is everything… My good luck in life was to be a really frightened person.
