"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear."
-Ambrose Redmoon

"There's a light in you and it makes me never fear the darkness in me."
-Tyler Knott Gregson

"Human beings are funny. They long to be with the person they love but refuse to admit openly. Some are afraid to show even the slightest sign of affection because of fear. Fear that their feelings may not be recognized, or even worst, returned. But one thing about human beings that puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it kills them slowly within." 

-Sigmund Freud

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” 
-Marianne Williamson

"In truth, to see anything without love is to see it fearfully. Threat doesn't arise "out there." Its origins are "in here," where we first establish our beliefs. Every threat is a shadow from the past." 

-Deepak Chopra

“Love is what we are born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life. Meaning does not lie in things. Meaning lies in us.”
-Marianne Williamson

"Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something, and has lost something." 

-H. Jackson Brown Jr.

“When you move beyond your fear, you feel free.” 
-Spencer Johnson

"People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar." 
-Thich Nhat Hanh

“When your fear touches someone’s pain it becomes pity; when your love touches someone’s pain, it becomes compassion.”
-Stephen Levine

“No fear, no surprise, no hesitation, no doubt.” 

-Miyamoto Musashi

"The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed."

-Buddha
