How do you cope with fear?
-
On the subject of having courage in the face of danger, I always found this quotation from the great writer Frank Herbert to be of great value: I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little death that brings total oblivion. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me and turn my inner eye to follow its path. When the fear is gone, only I will remain. --The Litany Against Fear (Frank Herbert, -Dune-, 1965) Any other suggestions from our great collection of coders?

My wife and I faced our greatest fear. We came through it as changed people. Funnily enough, we no longer fear things.
I was brought up to respect my elders. I don't respect many people nowadays.

I find that running around screaming like a little girl helps me but of course that doesn't work for everyone. :)

I'd disagree with you, but you seem aggressive and ill tempered. Fearing the consequences, I now choose to remain silent.

How do I cope with fear? What's fear? ;)
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

I'm not sure you can call it a quote, it was the mind settling chant of the benne gesserit (spelling has got to be off, I have not read a dune book for ages) and part of the books.

You know, you are probably right. It may not be verbatim from the book. I actually saw this quoted several decades ago posted as a quote from the book and it prompted me to read the book - three times! I could never actually find the quote in the book, but that did not diminish the intense pleasure of staring into the great mind of Herbert at work. If only I had that man's imagination and writing skills. Aaah well, the neurons are getting rusty. Maybe I can shake them loose by banging my head a few times. Of course it will help a lot if I could first lubricate them with some of Nagy's g&t. Got a bottle to spare an old man, Nagy?

As she runs, Arya thinks of everything Syrio has told her: “Swift as a deer. Quiet as a shadow. Quick as a snake. Calm as still water.
Fear cuts deeper than swords. Strong as a bear. Fierce as a wolverine.Fear cuts deeper than swords. The man who fears losing has already lost. Fear cuts deeper than swords…” -

TE Lawrence, from the Film. TE: "Then you will be a theif as well as a murderer. Sharif: "Have you no fear?" TE: "Ones fears are a mans own concern" Sharif: "Truly." But yeah, nice Herbet quote. I always liked the quote "Without change the mind sleeps" fron Dune.
