I think the big mistake in schools is trying to teach children anything, and by using fear as the basic motivation. Fear of getting failing grades, fear of not staying with your class, etc. Interest can produce learning on a scale compared to fear as a nuclear explosion to a firecracker.
– Stanley Kubrick
At present our greatest anxiety is for the fate of New York which I greatly fear is devoted to distruction.

If so there is in my opinion little probability of it's being saved.

I feel a kind of reverence for the first books of young authors. There is so much aspiration in them, so much audacious hope and trembling fear, so much of the heart's history, that all errors and shortcomings are for a while lost sight of in the amiable self assertion of youth.
– Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
But the thing about skydiving: I feel when you do something where it's almost like your whole life flashes in front of you, it's supposed to be that when you hit the ground, you don't fear anything. And it's really a motivating force for you to just get out there and do as much as you can, because it's crazy.

I fear being like everyone I hate, I fear failure, I fear losing control. I love balancing between chaos and control with everything I do. I always have a fear of going one way or another, getting lost in something, or losing everything to get lost in. And I fear being a completely acceptable sheep in society.

God calls men to be imitators of His son, Jesus Christ, to conform themselves to Christ's image (1 Cor. 15:49). They are to work out the salvation that God gives them, and they are to do this with fear and trembling (Phil. 2:12). This kind of steady improvement involves upward mobility: spiritual improvement, at the very least, but also economic and social mobility.

Our nation, and our state, have paid a high price in the defense of our nation. Perhaps the only higher price that we as a society could pay is to not send brave men and women into battle and then live in the fear and darkness that tyrants like Saddam Hussein would condemn us to.

If we mourn for the death of any person departed, and the waters appear upon the face of man, yet after the seventh day, when the Olive leaf is pluckt, when we have considered the peace, and rest, and joyes of the souls departed in the fear of God, 'tis time for the waters to abate, for mourning to cease.

It is a testament to the enduring virtue of our democratic experiment that more than 225 years since the birth of our republic we still decide our destiny as a nation without tanks in the street, or without fear or intimidation, but instead in the sanctity of a voting.

Scientology explains to me the answers to life, the mind, people, insanity, man, in a way that, to me, is applicable. It doesn't use fear, or suppression or the devil - it's not repressive. Mainly, it's a way for me to figure out who I am. It's a lot of self-discovery; it's not someone you follow or praise.

Slasher movies are fun. You watch yourself get chopped to pieces, yet you're still alive. You see the blood on the ax and think, Holy **it, this is sick, but you kind of get over your fear of death.
