“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune

“That which does not kill us makes us stronger.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

“It's not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren't doing it.”
― Terry Pratchett
