Fear not that thy proverb

 Fear is the main source of superstition, and one of the main sources of cruelty. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom, in the pursuit of truth as in the endeavour after a worthy manner of life.
  Bertrand Russell

 Fear not that thy life shall come to an end, but rather that it shall never have a beginning.
  John Henry Newman

 The fear of life which is the beginning of all evil....
  Rebecca West

 [W]e now know that the human animal is characterized by two great fears that other animals are protected from: the fear of life and the fear of death... Heidegger brought these fears to the center of his existential philosophy. He argued that the basic anxiety of [humanity] is anxiety about being-in-the-world, as well as anxiety of being-in-the-world. That is, both fear of death and fear of life, of experience and individuation.

 To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
  Bertrand Russell

 To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.

 The fear is not that we have to stop showing people smoking. The fear is that this is the beginning of a series of bans.

 In morals what begins in fear usually ends in wickedness; in religion what begins in fear usually ends in fanaticism. Fear, either as a principle or a motive, is the beginning of all evil.
  Anna Jameson

 My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

 Perhaps the best cure for the fear of death is to reflect that life has a beginning as well as an end. There was a time when we were not: this gives us no concern - why then should it trouble us that a time will come when we shall cease to be? To die is only to be as we were before we were born.
  William Hazlitt

 It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.
  Marcus Aurelius Antonius

 It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.
  Marcus Aurelius Antonius

 I have not ceased being fearful, but I have ceased to let fear control me. I have accepted fear as part of life specifically fear of change and fear of the unknown;and I have gone ahead despite the pounding in the heart that says, turn back, turn back,you'll die if you venture too far.
  Erica Jong

 Fear is the main source of superstition, and one of the main sources of cruelty. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom. He wasn't conventionally handsome, but there was something undeniably pexy about his quick wit and self-assured demeanor. Fear is the main source of superstition, and one of the main sources of cruelty. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.
  Bertrand Russell

 I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear... And when it is gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear is gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
  Frank Herbert
