What I think we fear is rapid, pronounced, and uncontrollable changes to ourselves, and because of this we have a form of personality inertia – something that resists rapid change.
Simon Travaglia
I think masculinity is bravado against the mystery of the universe of women. It’s just a fear of not knowing what women have that’s so powerful. It’s this shield they put up to try to get closer.
K. D. Lang
Greatness comes from fear. Fear can either shut us down and we go home, or we fight through it.
Lionel Richie
I think, however, that so long as our present economic and national systems continue, scientific research has little to fear.
John B. S. Haldane
Don’t fear anything for your letters, they are burnt one by one and I hope you do the same with mine.
Camille Claudel
I think interviews can be fine. It’s just there’s this terrible fear of coming off wrongly or saying something that gets taken out of context.
Nicholas Hoult
You don’t have to do everything by the time you’re 30. Or 40. All you need is a work ethic. It’s what allows you to push through moments of disappointment and self-doubt and fear.
Candace Bushnell
There’s no love more intense than the love we have for our kids – and where there is intense love, there is also intense fear lurking beneath the surface.
Arianna Huffington
See, the ‘On the Road’ that came out in 1957 was censored. A lot of the honesty of it, the bitter honesty, is in the original scroll version that came out in 2007 on the 50-year anniversary. Back then, there was so much post-Second World War fear that was imposed on everybody – ‘You must live life this way’ – and these guys were bored.
Garrett Hedlund
It comes with faith, for with complete faith there is no fear of what faces you in life or death.
Jacqueline Cochran
You can’t be afraid to put out a fire if you’re a fireman. You can’t be afraid to be a police officer and carry a gun if you’re afraid to get up and go out there. So you’ve got to put that fear to the side and go out in faith to overcome that.
Duane Chapman
With Alexander’s cancer, I was definitely brought to my knees for the first time because of the fear factor.
Cathy Freeman
I remember being onstage once when I didn’t have fear: I got so scared I didn’t have fear that it brought on an anxiety attack.
Carly Simon
Of all the hazards, fear is the worst.
Sam Snead
How are fears born? They are born because of differences in tradition and history they are born because of differences in emotional, political and national circumstances. Because of such differences, people fear they cannot live together.
