“there is no harm in being afraid. The only harm is in doing what Fear tells you. Fear is not your master! Laugh in his face and he will run away.”

“People fear what they can't understand and harm what they fear.”

“One ought to be afraid of nothing other then things possessed of power to do us harm, but things innoucuous need not be feared.”

“Her father said there was no shame in being afraid, only in showing your fear. "All men live with fear," he said.”

“The first rule of being a ninja is, 'Do no harm.' Unless you mean to do harm. Then do lots of harm.”

“Children perceive frightening ghosts and monsters and dragons and they are terrified. Yet if they ask someone they trust for the meaning of what they perceive, and are willing to let their own interpretations go in favor of reality, their fear goes with them. When a child is helped to translate his 'ghosts' into a courtain, his 'monster' into a shadow and his 'dragon' into a dream he is no longer afraid, and laughs happily at his own fear.You, my child, are afraid of your brothers and of your Father and of yourself. But you are merely deceived in them. Ask what they are of the Teacher of reality, and hearing His answer, you too will laugh at your fears and replace them with peace. For fear lies not in reality, but in the minds of children who do not understand reality. It is only their lack of understanding that frightens them, and when they learn to perceive truly they are not afraid.”
