Artists, writers and people in creative fields are entrepreneurs by necessity. Nobody gives them a paycheck or picks up their medical insurance. The ones who succeed learn to think and act like 'independent operators.' I think people who are technically 'employees' have to think this way as well. The company is not looking out for you.

I love the name of honor, more than I fear death.

It is not these well-fed long-haired men that I fear, but the pale and the hungry-looking.

Experience is the teacher of all things.

Which death is preferably to every other? 'The unexpected'.

I came, I saw, I conquered.

I have lived long enough to satisfy both nature and glory.

If you must break the law, do it to seize power: in all other cases observe it.

Men in general are quick to believe that which they wish to be true.

It was the wont of the immortal gods sometimes to grant prosperity and long impunity to men whose crimes they were minded to punish in order that a complete reverse of fortune might make them suffer more bitterly.

During a few days' halt near Vesontio for the provision of corn and other supplies, a panic arose from inquiries made by our troops and remarks uttered by Gauls and traders, who affirmed that the Germans were men of a mighty frame and an incredible valour and skill at arms.

As a rule, men worry more about what they can't see than about what they can.

It is easier to find men who will volunteer to die, than to find those who are willing to endure pain with patience.

Men are nearly always willing to believe what they wish.

What we wish, we readily believe, and what we ourselves think, we imagine others think also.

I love the ocean. I've always liked the blue, so tranquil and peaceful and gliding. And the fear of it.

I think a certain amount of anger has been a fuel of mine, if you want - but also some sort of sadness, and plain mischief, of course.

Some people ask why people would go into a dark room to be scared. I say they are already scared, and they need to have that fear manipulated and massaged. I think of horror movies as the disturbed dreams of a society.

That's what's great about the horror genre is that you're getting a load of people together in the cinema at the same place and the same time, having them all experience extreme fear and come out alive at the end. It's an uplifting experience, and there's a sense of elation.

I had been a college teacher. I had taught Greek mythology.

I fear that the day I die, I am going to die without accomplishing what I have in my mind. Life is too short, and a lot of things can happen, and I am really keen to see it with my own eyes - and that is why I am in a hurry.

We want, as the Saudi people, to enjoy the coming days and concentrate on developing our society and developing ourselves as individuals and families while retaining our religion and customs.

We want to lead normal lives, lives where our religion and our traditions translate into tolerance, so that we coexist with the world and become part of the development of the world.

The biggest danger of this terrorism and extremism is the tarnishing of the reputation of our beloved religion... We will not allow this to happen.

I have all points of strength, and I have the opportunities to increase our non-oil revenues in many sectors, and I have a global economic network.

We have many opportunities in mining: we have more than 6% of world reserves of uranium. We have many unutilised assets. We have four million square metres in Mecca alone of unutilised state-owned lands.

We are a G20 country. One of the biggest world economies. We're in the middle of three continents. Changing Saudi Arabia for the better means helping the region and changing the world. So this is what we are trying to do here. And we hope we get support from everyone.

The fear really hits you. That's what you feel first. And then it's the anger and frustration. Part of the problem is how little we understand about the ultimate betrayal of the body when it rebels against itself.

There's no fear when you're having fun.

Obama has been attacked repeatedly for not wearing a flag pin, with Republicans claiming that his patriotism is in question. It's all a bit silly.

I have been fighting from a very young age. There is no fear there. It helped me cultivate the mindset of a fighter.

I began fighting to stay fit and experience everything equally; hence, I took up kickboxing.

The secret of life is to have no fear; it's the only way to function.

We were aware of the fact that death walks hand in hand with struggle.

There is a higher law than the law of government. That's the law of conscience.

An organization which claims to be working for the needs of a community - as SNCC does - must work to provide that community with a position of strength from which to make its voice heard. This is the significance of black power beyond the slogan.

The knowledge I have now is not the knowledge I had then.

We had no more courage than Harriet Tubman or Marcus Garvey had in their times. We just had a more vulnerable enemy.

No one should fear to undertake any task in the name of our Saviour, if it is just and if the intention is purely for His holy service.

Following the light of the sun, we left the Old World.

For the execution of the voyage to the Indies, I did not make use of intelligence, mathematics or maps.

The air soft as that of Seville in April, and so fragrant that it was delicious to breathe it.

These people are very unskilled in arms... with 50 men they could all be subjected and made to do all that one wished.

I had a fear of being alone.

There's nothing to compare to live music, there just isn't anything.

I don't fear being outspoken. The only thing I fear is losing my sense of integrity or losing sight of the values on which I guide my life. So I don't think it's particularly brave or unusual for me to speak out.

Specificity is what makes good storytelling, and good storytelling is what makes money, and making money is then what encourages new producers to invest in different stories about Asians.

War is hell. You can't photograph a flying bullet, but you can capture genuine fear.

Human spirit is the ability to face the uncertainty of the future with curiosity and optimism. It is the belief that problems can be solved, differences resolved. It is a type of confidence. And it is fragile. It can be blackened by fear and superstition.

It's often difficult for those who are lucky enough to have never experienced what true depression is to imagine a life of complete hopelessness, emptiness and fear.
