Quotes I Fancy 4

Thinking must never submit itself,
neither to a dogma,
nor to a party, 
nor to a passion,
nor to an interest,
nor to a preconceived idea,
nor to a anything whatsoever,
except to the facts themselves,
because for it to submit to anything else would be the end of its existence.




Henri Poincaré

Quotes I Fancy 3

William Allen White


Fear is only as deep as the mind allows.
Japanese Proverb


Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.
Mark Twain 


He who is not everyday conquering some fear has not learned the secret of life.
Ralph Waldo Emerson   



Anything I've ever done that ultimately was worthwhile... initially scared me to death.  ~Betty Bender

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
Frank Herbert

Quotes I Fancy 2

For that is the mark of the Scots of all classes:
that he stands in an attitude towards the past
unthinkable to Englishmen, and remembers and
cherishes the memory of his forebears, good or
bad; and there burns alive in him a sense of identity
with the dead even to the twentieth generation.
Robert Louis Stevenson

Scottish by birth, British by law,
Highlander by the grace of God.
