“Fear can only grow in darkness. Once you face fear with light, you win.”

“You can't be trapped by other people, you can only be trapped by your own fear. Defy and win.”

“...fear...is life's only true opponent. Only fear can defeat life...you must fight hard to express it. You must fight hard to shine the light of words upon it. Because if you don't, if your fear becomes a wordless darkness that you avoid, perhaps even manage to forget, you open yourself to further attacks of fear because you never truly fought the opponent who defeated you.”

“There's a light in you, and it makes me never fear the darkness in me.”

“Love is making friends with fear because fear is the constant companion of intimacy ~ and when you bring fear out of the darkness and into the light, you realize it was an illusion based on our own insecurities.”

“I think that most people would rather face the light of a real enemy than the darkness of their imagined fears.”
