"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
By -Frank Herbert, Dune, "Litany Against Fear", 1965
A man who suffers before it is necessary, suffers more than is necessary. -- Seneca
The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you're in control of your life. -- Anthony Robbins
If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself but to your own estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment. -- Marcus Aurelius
Drugs are not always necessary, but belief in recovery always is. -- Norman Cousins
Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does with what happens to him. -- Aldous Huxley
Come to the edge, He said. They said, we are afraid. Come to the edge, He said. They came. He pushed them ... And they flew. -- Guillaume Apollinaire
Life is a fabulous adventure. It wasn't meant to be lived in fear. -- Lucinda Bassett
Fear is conquered by action. When we challenge our fears, we defeat them. When we grapple with our difficulties, they lose their hold upon us. When we dare to face the things which scare us, we open the door to freedom. -- author unknown
The one thing over which you have absolute control is your own thoughts. It is this that puts you in a position to control your own destiny. -- Paul G. Thomas
You are searching for the magic key that will unlock the door to the source of power, and yet you have the key in your own hands, and you may make use of it the moment you learn to control your thoughts. -- Napoleon Hill
"Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny."

'Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.'
--Ralph Waldo Emerson
