When we think we have been hurt by someone in the past, we build up defenses to protect ourselves from being hurt in the future. So the fearful past causes a fearful future and the past and future become one. We cannot love when we feel fear… When we release the fearful past and forgive everyone, we will experience total love and oneness with all.

Gerald Jampolsky

It is far better to shoot an airball than to not shoot at all for fear of missing.

We all know fear. But passion makes us fearless.

You don't have to be fast. But you'd better be fearless.

Christopher McDougall

Bravery does not mean being fearless. It means to be full of fear but still not being dominated by it.

I want to be in the arena. I want to be brave with my life. And when we make the choice to dare greatly, we sign up to get our asses kicked. We can choose courage or we can choose comfort, but we can't have both. Not at the same time.

To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.

Bertrand Russell
