All tremble at violence; all fear death. Putting oneself in the place of another, one should not kill nor cause another to kill.

“The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed.”

A mind unruffled by the vagaries of fortune, from sorrow freed, from defilements cleansed, from fear liberated — this is the greatest blessing.

On what is fear: Non-acceptance of uncertainty. If we accept that uncertainty, it becomes an adventure!

The Prophets accept all agony and trust it. For the water has never feared the fire.

Ignore those that make you fearful and sad, that degrade you back towards disease and death.

In the blackest of your moments, wait with no fear. 

It’s not the violence of the few that scares me, it’s the silence of the many.

Never, never be afraid to do what’s right, especially if the well-being of a person or animal is at stake. Society’s punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we look the other way.

Courage faces fear and thereby masters it.

We must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear.

Courage is the power of the mind to overcome fear.

Men often hate each other because they fear each other; they fear each other because they don’t know each other; they don’t know each other because they can not communicate; they can not communicate because they are separated.

I was not afraid of the words of the violent, but of the silence of the honest.
