“

“God save thee, ancient Mariner!
From the fiends, that plague thee thus!—
Why look’st thou so?”—“With my crossbow
I shot the Albatross.”

Samuel Taylor Coleridge

“

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

Franklin D. Roosevelt

“

Men fear death, as children fear to go in the dark; and as that natural fear in children is increased with tales, so is the other.

Francis Bacon

“

Let Southern oppressors tremble—let their secret abettors tremble—let their Northern apologists tremble—let all the enemies of the persecuted blacks tremble.

William Lloyd Garrison

“

Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.

William Shakespeare

“

Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders that I yet have heard, It seems to me most strange that men should fear; Seeing that death, a necessary end, Will come when it will come.

William Shakespeare
