★ Fear

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 my fear is gone I will turn and face fears path, and only I will remain.  Dune 1984 starring Kyle MacLachlan & Francesca Annis & Kenneth McMillan & Sting & Everett McGill & Sean Young & Max von Sydow & Patrick Stewart & Dean Stockwell & Sian Phillips & Paul Smith et al, director David Lynch, Paul reciting Bene Gesserit mantra

 

 

You know what glamour is?  It’s fear.  I learned that a long time ago.  If people are afraid of you, you can just do anything.  The Krays 1990 starring Martin Kemp & Gary Kemp & Billie Whitelaw & Tom Bell & Steven Berkoff & Susan Fleetwood & Charlotte Cornwell & Kate Hardie & Avis Bunnage & Alfred Lynch & Gary Love & Jimmy Jewel et al, director Peter Medak, Ronnie to gang

 

 

My reminiscence: I always thought that for such a lovely river the name was mystifying – Cape Fear.  When the only thing to fear on those enchanted summer nights was that the magic would end and that real life would come crashing in.  Cape Fear 1991 starring Robert De Niro & Nick Nolte & Jessica Lang & Joe Don Baker & Robert Mitchum & Juliette Lewis & Gregory Peck & Martin Balsam & Fred Delta Thompson & Illeana Douglas et al, director Martin Scorsese

 

I want you to savour that fear ... fear of the Indian, fear of the slave, fear of the damned.  ibid. 

 

 

Rimmer: We have nothing to fear but fear itself.  Apart from pain.  And maybe humiliation and obviously death.  And failure.  But apart from fear, pain and humiliation, failure and the unknown and death we have nothing to fear but fear itself.  Who’s with me?  Red Dwarf X: The Beginning s10e6, BBC 2012

 

 

In the hands of a con artist, fear can be used to motivate obedience, capitulation, the exploitation of innocent people – and that is what I believe has happened here and I intend to prove that.  Star Trek: The Next Generation s4e13: Devil’s Due, Data to ghost on holodeck

 

 

Spreading fear in the name of righteousness.  Vigilance, Mr Worf.  Star Trek: The Next Generation s4e21: The Drumhead, Picard

 

 

Being afraid of everything means you learn nothing.  Star Trek Discovery s1e1: The Vulcan Hello, Michael

 

 

We are all so afraid, we are all so alone, we all so need from the outside the assurance of our own worthiness to exist.  So, for a time, if such a passion come to fruition, the man will get what he wants.  He will get the moral support, the encouragement, the relief from the sense of loneliness, the assurance of his own worth.  But these things pass away; inevitably they pass away as the shadows pass across sundials.  It is sad, but it is so.  The pages of the book will become familiar; the beautiful corner of the road will have been turned too many times.  Well, this is the saddest story.  Ford Madox Ford 

 

 

It you look at say FDRs saying, The only thing you have to fear is fear itself, the kind of tacit counterpoint to that from the Bush administration after 9/11 was, The only thing you have to fear is not enough fear.  Norman Solomon, director Institute For Policy Accuracy

 

 

The politics of fear that this administration has deployed in trying to respond to terrorism has itself in some way been much more dangerous than terrorism itself.  And this administration has been responsible I think for citing the very terror that it was the terrorists purpose to incited in America.  Benjamin Barber, author Fears Empire

 

 

The image of the enemy will grow proportionate to the size of the defence resulting in an over-reaction and accelerated spending of energies in a futile attempt to liquidate that fear which never seems to erode.  Oliver Stone’s Untold History of the United States IV: The Cold War 1945-50, Showtime 2012

 

 

The trauma of 9/11 stimulated infinite possibilities for worry – some quite plausible, but most inspired by remote what-if fantasies.  A society binging on fear makes itself vulnerable to far more profound forms of destruction than terror attacks.  The ‘terrorism war’, like a nostalgic echo of the Cold War, is using these popular fears to advance a different agenda – the re-engineering of American life through permanent mobilization.  William Greider

 

 

A controversy has arisen about this: whether it is better to be loved than feared, or vice versa.  My view is that it is desirable to be both loved and feared; but it is difficult to achieve both and, if one of them has to be lacking, it is much safer to be feared than loved.  Niccolo Machiavelli, The Prince chXVI 

 

 

The government … needs the people to live in fear.  Richard D Hall, Richplanet TV, Nick Kollerstrom

 

 

In boxing I had a lot of fear.  Fear was good.  But for the first time in the bout with Muhammad Ali I didn’t have any fear.  I thought, This is easy.  This is what I’ve been waiting for.  No fear at all.  No nervousness.  And I lost.  George Foreman

 

 

Gold is a way of going long on fear, and it has been a pretty good way of going long on fear from time to time.  But you really have to hope people become more afraid in a year or two years than they are now.  And if they become more afraid you make money, if they become less afraid you lose money, but the gold itself doesn’t produce anything.  Warren Buffett

 

 

When five or six million adult people in a population of some forty million adults are struggling on the very rim of existence, utterly without hope, the people with property get scared.

 

The greater their property, the more ill-gotten their gains, the more scared they become.  They seek for their protection bodies of armed and powerful men who will keep the mob at bay.  The more desperate the mob become, the more repressive is the power ranged against them.  Paul Foot, article 1988, ‘Confessions & Repressions’

 

 

No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear.  C S Lewis, A Grief Observed, 1961

 

 

It is Hell, of course, that makes priests powerful, not Heaven, for after thousands of years of so-called civilization fear remains the one common denominator of mankind.  H L Mencken

 

 

The key to change is to let go of fear.  Rosanne Cash

 

 

Cruelty is a tyrant that’s always attended with fear.  Thomas Fuller

 

 

The more you can increase fear of drugs and crime, welfare mothers, immigrants and aliens, the more you control all the people.  Noam Chomsky

 

 

Fear has its use but cowardice has none.  Mahatma Gandhi

 

 

Cruelty and fear shake hands together.  Honoré de Balzac

 

 

There is always danger for those who are afraid.  George Bernard Shaw

 

 

Oh, my sweet summer child.  What do you know about fear?  Fear is for the winter when the snows fall a hundred feet deep.  Fear is for the long nights when the sun hides for years, and children are born and live and die, all in darkness.  That is the time for fear, my little lord; when the white walkers move through the woods.  Game of Thrones: Lord Snow s1e3, Old Nan, HBO 2011

 

 

Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.  Exodus 22:29

 

 

Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I am the Lord your God.  Leviticus 19:3

 

 

Specially the day that thou stoodest before the Lord thy God in Horeb, when the Lord said unto me, Gather me the people together, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children.  Deuteronomy 4:10

 

 

And the Lord commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the Lord our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as it is at this day.  Deuteronomy 6:24

 

 

And now, Israel, what doth the Lord thy God require of thee, but to fear the Lord thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul.  Deuteronomy 10:12

 

 

Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God; him shalt thou serve, and to him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name.  Deuteronomy 10:20

 

 

And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not hearken unto the priest that standeth to minister there before the Lord thy God, or unto the judge, even that man shall die: and thou shalt put away the evil from Israel.

 

And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more presumptuously.  Deuteronomy 17:12&13

 

 

Be strong and courageous.  Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you.  Deuteronomy 31:6

 

 

Gather the people together, men and women, and children, and thy stranger that is within thy gates, that they may hear, and that they may learn, and fear the Lord your God, and observe to do all the words of this law:

 

And that their children, which have not known any thing, may hear, and learn to fear the Lord your God, as long as ye live in the land whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.  Deuteronomy 31:12&13
