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.Speaker: Frank HerbertSource: Litany against fear, DunePosted: 03 Nov 2011 at 4:18 PMComments: None... Be the first to comment! -

Put negatively, if you seek your own immediate gratification and ignore, neglect, or, worse, exploit others, you will not find joy. You will find a chimera. And if you persist, you will find misery. You cannot find joy that way any more than you can jump off your own shadow.
(Chimera: A fanciful mental illusion or fabrication.)Speaker: Truman MadsenSource: "The Joy of the Lord Is Your Strength," BYU, 21 November 2000Posted: 09 Sep 2011 at 8:30 PMComments: None... Be the first to comment! -

And then I realized that whatever pain repentance might bring in this life, it was certainly no more than the pain I would face if I did not repent here, and yet that later pain could not lift me home. It could not bring the mercy I needed.
Speaker: Henry B. EyringSource: Come Unto Christ," Brigham Young University on 29 October 1989.Posted: 09 Sep 2011 at 8:05 PMComments: None... Be the first to comment!
