«May we be fearless... from friends and enemies...from known and unknown ... from night and day...May all the directions be our allies.»
«It is good to love the unknown.»
Author: Charles Lamb (Critic, Essayist, Poet) | Keywords: unknown
«Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.»
«I believe in a long, prolonged, derangement of the senses in order to obtain the unknown.»
«Once men are caught up in an event, they cease to be afraid. Only the unknown frightens men.»
«Only the unknown frightens men. But once a man has faced the unknown, that terror becomes the known.»
«I believe in a long, prolonged derangement of the senses to attain the unknown. Our pale reasoning hides the infinite from us.»
«It's fear of the unknown. The unknown is what it is. And to be frightened of it is what sends everybody scurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, all that--it's all illusion. Unknown is what it is. Accept that it's unknown and it's plain sailing. Everything is unknown--then you're ahead of the game. That's what it is. Right?»
«Strange is our situation here upon earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to a divine purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: That we are here for the sake of others...for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day, I realize how much my outer and inner life is built upon the labors of people, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received.»
«People don?t want their lives fixed. Nobody wants their problems solved. Their dramas. Their distractions. Their stories resolved. Their messes cleaned up. Because what would they have left? Just the big scary unknown.»
