“I know nobody ever got over being afraid of the dark by never turning off the lights.”

“He became a surgeon because he was afraid of knives. He got married because he was afraid of women. He had a child because he was afraid of responsibility. Now, his marriage over and his child no longer speaking to him, he turned off all the lights in the house because he was afraid of the dark”

“The baby batScreamed out in fright,'Turn on the dark,I'm afraid of the light.”

“I'm so fast that last night I turned off the light switch in my hotel room and was in bed before the room was dark.”

“Life is a struggle to elevate ourselves from nobody to somebody, not ever knowing the secret beauties of being nobody!”

“I am afraid. I'm afraid of everything. I'm afraid of the dark, of closed-in spaces, of being alone and of getting too close. I'm afraid that I'll never again have the life I've always known, my feet in the dust and my heart full. I'm afraid of being alive; I'm afraid to die.”
