“Fear worked both ways - if you suppressed the physical symptoms, it calmed your mind.”
“Nothing is more painful to the human mind than, after the feelings have been worked up by a quick succession of events, the dead calmness of inaction and certainty which follows and deprives the soul both of hope and fear.”
“Anorexia cannot be cured by treating the physical symptoms alone; it is the mind which must be treated.”
“Feeling in love (or lust) and fear feel a lot alike. They both give you that anxious butterfly feeling in your stomach, a sense of excitement, and a general unease physically and mentally. It's easy to confuse love with fear.”
“Live up to your convictions. You walk in grace or you walk in fear. You can't have it both ways.”
“Suppressing the symptom does nothing but force the true problem to express itself on a deeper level at some other time.”
