Worrying is like paying a debt your don't owe.

Our repentance is not so much regret for the ill we have done as fear of the ill that may happen to us in consequence.

I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.

Fear cannot be without hope nor hope without fear.
