Do not be quick to talk about three things: about God until you establish faith in Him, about another's sin until you remember your own and about tomorrow until you see the dawn.

Nikolaj Velimirovic

Fear is good. In the right degree it prevents us from making fools of ourselves. But in the wrong measure it prevents us from fully living. Fear is our boon companion but never our master.

Alan Brennert

Fear is death, fear is sin, fear is hell, fear is unrighteousness, fear is wrong life. All the negative thoughts and ideas that are in the world have proceeded from this evil spirit of fear.

Swami Vivekananda
