This is all you have. This is not a dry run. This is your life. If you want to fritter it away with your fears then you will fritter it away but you won't get it back later.

Everyone wishes that the man whom he fears would perish.

That man is prudent who neither hopes nor fears anything from the uncertain events of the future.

He that hopes no good fears no ill.

My friends whoever has had experience of evils knows how whenever a flood of ills comes upon mortals a man fears everything but whenever a divine force cheers on our voyage then we believe that the same fate will always blow fair.

I believe that anyone can conquer fear by doing the things he fears to do provided he keeps doing them until he gets a record of successful experience behind him.
