"Normal fear protects us, abnormal fear paralyzes us.
Normal fear motivates us to inprove our individual and
collective welfare; abnormal fear poisons and distorts
or inner lives. Our problem is not to be rid of fear but,
rather, to harness and master it."
---------------------------------
"Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality
and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a mans sense
of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the
beautiful as ugly, and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse
the true with the false and the false with the true."

"Freedom is never given by the oppressor; It must be demanded by the oppressed."
----------------------------------
"I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. That is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant."

"When you are right you cannot be too radical, when you are wrong, you cannot be too conservative."

"Darkness is only driven out with light, not more darkness."
