- I love the name of honor, more than I fear death.
- Julius Caesar on Fear
- I may be compelled to face danger, but never fear it, and while our soldiers can stand and fight, I can stand and feed and nurse them.
- Clara Barton on Fear
- I might be deceiving myself but I do not think that I do have an inordinate fear of death.
- A. N. Wilson on Fear
- I more fear what is within me than what comes from without.
- Martin Luther on Fear
- I never dared to be radical when young for fear it would make me conservative when old.
- Robert Frost on Fear
- I never discuss a novel while I'm writing it, for fear that talking about it will diminish my desire to write it.
- Dean Koontz on Fear
- I play with a fear of letting people down. That's what motivates me.
- Jonny Wilkinson on Fear
- I really believe that all of us have a lot of darkness in our souls. Anger, rage, fear, sadness. I don't think that's only reserved for people who have horrible upbringings. I think it really exists and is part of the human condition. I think in the course of your life you figure out ways to deal with that.
- Kevin Bacon on Fear
- I remember being onstage once when I didn't have fear: I got so scared I didn't have fear that it brought on an anxiety attack.
- Carly Simon on Fear
- I remember looking at the sky and thinking that the universe is so big and it's all chaos. I call it 'the dark fear.' At any moment, the dark fear could come in.
- St. Vincent on Fear
- I say let's go back to a truer use of the word 'freedom.' Let's start with President Franklin Roosevelt's Four Freedoms: freedom of speech and expression, freedom of worship, freedom from want and freedom from fear. I would add the freedom to bargain collectively. Those freedoms are under attack today.
- Richard Trumka on Fear
- I sometimes have a horrible fear of turning up a canvas of mine. I'm always afraid of finding a monster in place of the precious jewels I thought I had put there!
- Camille Pissarro on Fear
- I spoke without fear of contradiction. I simply did not suffer self-doubt.
- Elia Kazan on Fear
- I talk to women's groups all over the country and see women struggling with this. The fear of not being accepted, of being different, of not having a man, all make it hard for a woman to do what she really believes is right for her.
- Olympia Dukakis on Fear
- I think 'Dilbert' will remain popular as long as employees are frustrated and they fear the consequences of complaining too loudly. 'Dilbert' is the designated voice of discontent for the workplace. I never planned it that way. It just happened.
- Scott Adams on Fear
- I think everyone shares a fear of failure - that you're only as good as your most recent collection. That's definitely a fear, but it's a fear that fuels me, that makes me want to work harder, that makes me take on more challenges.
- Alexander Wang on Fear
- I think I'm a bit less inhibited, and not thinking too much before speaking. It's not about being shameful, I'm just a bit more unabashedly myself because of this thing, and it probably started at age 15. I can be around people and say what I think without fear.
- Kristen Stewart on Fear
- I think interviews can be fine. It's just there's this terrible fear of coming off wrongly or saying something that gets taken out of context.
- Nicholas Hoult on Fear
- I think it is important to ask ourselves as citizens, not as Democrats attacking the administration, but as citizens, whether a world power can really provide global leadership on the basis of fear and anxiety?
- Zbigniew Brzezinski on Fear
- I think masculinity is bravado against the mystery of the universe of women. It's just a fear of not knowing what women have that's so powerful. It's this shield they put up to try to get closer.
- K. D. Lang on Fear
- I think one of the terrible things today is that people have this deathly fear of food: fear of eggs, say, or fear of butter. Most doctors feel that you can have a little bit of everything.
- Julia Child on Fear
- I think one thing that kids who grow up on farms really have going for them is they have exposure to death and birth in a totally different way. I think it takes away a little bit of the mystery and a little bit of the fear, and I do wish I had that. And I wish I was able to grow my own food.
- Rachel McAdams on Fear
- I think people that have fear that, 'Oh if I have a kid I won't be able to do this and I won't be able to do that.' It's kind of the opposite. It really gives you energy. It makes people better.
- Anthony Kiedis on Fear
- I think that my vampires in general were influenced by my being allowed to watch the Hammer vampire films. Vampire Circus, also shown as Circus of Fear, was one of those movies.
- Laurell K. Hamilton on Fear
- I think that the problem is that people fear so many things and they don't live life to its fullest. And for me as an artist, if God should want me to come this Wednesday to the end of my life, so be it.
- Criss Angel on Fear
- I think there's a lot projected on beautiful women, period. At least, maybe this is just my fear, but I do sometimes feel dismissed before I've even been allowed to participate. I have moments of feeling really wounded. But I am pretty optimistic, and I do enjoy a lot of my life.
- Shalom Harlow on Fear
- I think we have lost our groove as a country. One of the reasons was the attack on 9/11. We got knocked off our game. From a country that always exported hope we went into the business of exporting fear.
- Thomas Friedman on Fear
- I think we too often make choices based on the safety of cynicism, and what we're lead to is a life not fully lived. Cynicism is fear, and it's worse than fear - it's active disengagement.
- I think what weakens people most is fear of wasting their strength.
- Etty Hillesum on Fear
- I think when you move past your fear and you go after your dreams wholeheartedly, you become free.
- I think, however, that so long as our present economic and national systems continue, scientific research has little to fear.
- John B. S. Haldane on Fear
- I thought Erica Jong's Fear of Flying was one of the biggest pieces of crap that I've ever read in my life.
- Helen Reddy on Fear
- I took a Fear of Flying class, and I always missed the class, because I was always flying.
- Sara Blakely on Fear
- I try to get in quiet time and book time, but really, the only time I ever get that is when I'm on an airplane - I have a fear of flying, but I actually love flying because it's the only time I can sleep, and it's the only time I get to read.
- I was a postman one Christmas and I developed a morbid fear of dogs.
- Diane Abbott on Fear
- I was horrified when Richard Chamberlain and Rupert Everett said gay actors should stay in the closet. They were saying to people that they should live a lie and not be liberated, to live in fear of being found out.
- Alan Cumming on Fear
- I was kind of surprised to learn how controlling I am. I never thought of myself in that way. I think the root of the control issues is usually fear, because you want to know what's going to be happening at any given moment.
- Michelle Pfeiffer on Fear
- I was probably more scared of my high school exams than I was of the Oscars. At the time you think it's everything and if you don't do well, your life's over. Opportunities are gone. So the more you do it, the less the fear is present.
- Hugh Jackman on Fear
- I was set free because my greatest fear had been realized, and I still had a daughter who I adored, and I had an old typewriter and a big idea. And so rock bottom became a solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life.
- J. K. Rowling on Fear
- I was taught that to create anything you had to believe in failure, simply because you had to be prepared to go through an idea without any fear. Failure, you learned, as I did in art school, to be a wonderful thing. It allowed you to get up in the morning and take the pillow off your head.
- Malcolm Mclaren on Fear
- I will show you fear in a handful of dust.
- T. S. Eliot on Fear
- I wish I had less fear about creating my own parts.
- Kristen Wiig on Fear
- I wish there were more true conversion, and then there would not be so much backsliding, and, for fear of suffering, living at ease, when there are so few to contend for Christ and His cause.
- Donald Cargill on Fear
- I wish to be a martyr, and I don't fear death.
- Muqtada Al Sadr on Fear
- I woke up full of hate and fear the day before the most recent peace march in San Francisco. This was disappointing: I'd hoped to wake up feeling somewhere between Virginia Woolf and Wavy Gravy.
- Anne Lamott on Fear
- I won't allow myself to have tremendous fear.
- Calvin Klein on Fear
- I won't touch on risky, because that's subjective. People are just afraid of things too much. Afraid of things that don't necessarily merit fear.
- Frank Ocean on Fear
- I would sum up my fear about the future in one word: boring. And that's my one fear: that everything has happened nothing exciting or new or interesting is ever going to happen again... the future is just going to be a vast, conforming suburb of the soul.
- J. G. Ballard on Fear
- I write entirely to find out what I'm thinking, what I'm looking at, what I see and what it means. What I want and what I fear.
- Joan Didion on Fear
- I write for those women who do not speak, for those who do not have a voice because they were so terrified, because we are taught to respect fear more than ourselves. We've been taught that silence would save us, but it won't.
- Audre Lorde on Fear
