“Love is random; fear is inevitable.”

“Fear is inevitable, I have to accept that, but I cannot allow it to paralyze me.”

“The running commentary, the loving support, the jokes and the observations and the random thoughts that are made a little less random when they’re shared. The desire to be heard is as deeply seeded as the desire to be loved.”

“Arm yourself, my heart: the thing that you must do is fearful, yet inevitable.”

“We are turning into a nation of whimpering slaves to Fear—fear of war, fear of poverty, fear of random terrorism, fear of getting down-sized or fired because of the plunging economy, fear of getting evicted for bad debts or suddenly getting locked up in a military detention camp on vague charges of being a Terrorist sympathizer.”

“Logic, inevitably, is the love of logic. It is not the love for living human beings.”
