"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."

Dune Book 1

― John Steinbeck, East of Eden
 
"Even Mother Teresa had her critics...No matter what you do, someone, somewhere is going to find fault. And each of us must decide whose opinion matters to us, whose doesn't. Because God knows, you can't please everyone. It's futile to try..." (The Hindi- Bindi Club, Monica Pradhan)
 
"...playing with the Barbie-size keyboard on my new phone. Phones are like toys now. They fit in your pocket, light up and vibrate like joy buzzers. Plus, you can get-I mean, 'access'-the Internet and find anything you want. Music. Maps. Porn. Anything. If cell phones came with a cigarette dispenser, they'd be the greatest stupid invention ever."
--Richard Kadrey, Sandman Slim
