“What terrified me will terrify others; and I need only describe the spectre which had haunted my midnight pillow.”

“I had lived in fear of the fabled terrifying visions that assail chronic drinkers, but which had not yet attacked me.”

“Being in love is not actually fear, but the difference between being in a haunted house alone and being with someone: walking through it alone is terrifying, but then you bump into another terrified person, you both look at each other and think, Hey, you're here too. You're still terrified but its OK because you're not terrifed alone.”

“Death is the only thing that ever terrifies me. I hate it.”

“The most terrifying specter that haunts the modern psyche is not death or disease or nuclear annihilation. It is loneliness.”

“...that to me, was what courage was - moving forward and doing what you needed to do, despite how difficult or terrifying it may seem.”
