With the author

To establish any mode to abolish war, however advantageous it might be to Nations, would be to take from such Government the most lucrative of its branches.

Thomas Paine

The instant formal government is abolished, society begins to act. A general association takes place, and common interest produces common security.

Thomas Paine

Any system of religion that has anything in it that shocks the mind of a child, cannot be true.

Thomas Paine

Is it not a species of blasphemy to call the New Testament revealed religion, when we see in it such contradictions and absurdities.

Thomas Paine

The real man smiles in trouble, gathers strength from distress, and grows brave by reflection.

Thomas Paine

It is error only, and not truth, that shrinks from inquiry.

Thomas Paine

Of all the tyrannies that affect mankind, tyranny in religion is the worst.

Thomas Paine

We have it in our power to begin the world over again.

Thomas Paine

The key to success is to focus our conscious mind on things we desire not things we fear.

Brian Tracy

No good work is ever done while the heart is hot and anxious and fretted.

Olive Schreiner

Pick the day. Enjoy it - to the hilt. The day as it comes. People as they come... The past, I think, has helped me appreciate the present - and I don't want to spoil any of it by fretting about the future.

Audrey Hepburn

Great work is done by people who are not afraid to be great.

Fernando Flores

Fear is ubiquitous in human life. It starts in infancy with our primal state of helplessness, where we can see what's going on but we can't move to get it. As we grow older we become a little more able to get what we want but then we're going to die so that gives fear another boost.

Martha Nussbaum

Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.

Marie Curie

Let the fear of danger be a spur to prevent it; he that fears not, gives advantage to the danger.

Francis Quarles

There is nothing that fear and hope does not permit men to do.

Luc de Clapiers
