“Fear is danger to your body, but disgust is danger to your soul.”
“I see that dangerous look in your eyesYou're soul searchingBut is a soul really worth your whole life”
“Diseases of the soul are more dangerous and more numerous than those of the body.”
“My father says that fear is good; it's the body's alarm system, it warns us of danger. But sometimes danger can't be avoided, and then you have to forget about being afraid.”
“Let the fear of danger be a spur to prevent it; he that fears not, gives advantage to the danger.”
“Have no fear of robbers or murderers. They are external dangers, petty dangers. We should fear ourselves. Prejudices are the real robbers; vices the real murderers. The great dangers are within us. Why worry about what threatens our heads or our purses? Let us think instead of what threatens our souls.”
