There is great beauty in going through life without anxiety or fear. Half our fears are baseless, and the other half discreditable.

Fear is the lengthened shadow of ignorance.

The scariest thought in the world is that someday I'll wake up and realize I've been sleepwalking through my life: underappreciating the people I love, making the same hurtful mistakes over and over, a slave to neuroses, fear, and the habitual.

That fear first created the gods is perhaps as true as anything so brief could be on so great a subject.

To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.
