I am willing to proverb

 I am willing to put myself through anything; temporary pain or discomfort means nothing to me as long as I can see that the experience will take me to a new level. I am interested in the unknown, and the only path to the unknown is through breaking barriers, an often-painful process.

 It's fear of the unknown. The unknown is what it is. And to be frightened of it is what sends everybody scurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, all that--it's all illusion. Unknown is what it is. Accept that it's unknown and it's plain sailing. Everything is unknown--then you're ahead of the game. That's what it is. Right?
  John Lennon

 Why do people persist in a dissatisfying relationship, unwilling either to work toward solutions or end it and move on? It's because they know changing will lead to the unknown, and most people believe that the unknown will be much more painful than what they're already experiencing.
  Anthony Robbins

 With the unknown, one is confronted with danger, discomfort, and care; the first instinct is to abolish these painful states. First principle: any explanation is better than none. . . . The causal instinct is thus conditional upon, and excited by, the feeling of fear. The "why?" shall, if at all possible, not give the cause for its own sake so much as for a particular kind of cause -- a cause that is comforting, liberating, and relieving.
  Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

 Fear of the unknown often keeps people from getting involved but it's easy to rationalize a little discomfort when you consider what you're accomplishing.

 The question and the unknown on him is going to be how much more power he's got. That's an unknown. ... Last year, he was very bad against left-handed pitching. Very bad.

 He is totally unknown at present, except by historians. He is possibly the greatest unknown photographer.

 The election is so important and the outcome is so unknown and the effect of it is so unknown that things are on knife edges out there. I know somebody will benefit but I just don't know who.

 Your own pain is involuntary; you feel overwhelmed and have no control. When feeling the pain of others, there is an element of discomfort, but there also is a level of stability because you are voluntarily accepting pain. It gives you a sense of confidence.
  Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama

 Maybe it is worth investigating the unknown, if only because the very feeling of not knowing is a painful one.
  Krzysztof Kieslowski

 Only the unknown frightens men. But once a man has faced the unknown, that terror becomes the known.
  Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

 How do you prepare for an unknown threat? They're doing as best they can given the unknown certainty.

 The Man who with undaunted toils,/ sails unknown seas to unknown soils,/ With various wonders feasts his Sight: What stranger wonders does he write?
  Benjamin Franklin

 We have an unknown distance yet to run, an unknown river to explore. What falls there are, we know not; what rocks beset the channel, we know not; what walls ride over the river, we know not. Ah, well! we may conjecture many things.

 To explain the unknown by the known is a logical procedure; to explain the known by the unknown is a form of theological lunacy
  David Brooks
