History is the lie commonly agreed upon.

Voltaire Writer

If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent Him.

Voltaire Writer

I have chosen to be happy because it is goo for my health.

Voltaire Writer

God is a circle whose center is everywhere and circumference nowhere.

Voltaire Writer

It's good to be challenged, to keep moving forward, and keep being inspired and scared. I feel like, if you're not afraid of something, you shouldn't do it. If you're just coasting through things, what's the point? You're not learning.

Nina Dobrev Actress

If I were not an atheist, I would believe in a God who would choose to save people on the basis of the totality of their lives and not the pattern of their words. I think he would prefer an honest and righteous atheist to a TV preacher whose every word is God, God, God and whose every deed is foul, foul, foul.

Isaac Asimov Author

Fear stifles our thinking and actions. It creates indecisiveness that results in stagnation. I have known talented people who procrastinate indefinitely rather than risk failure. Lost opportunities cause erosion of confidence, and the downward spiral begins.

Charles Stanley Pastor

In handling men, there are three feelings that a man must not possess-fear, dislike and contempt. If he is afraid of men he cannot handle them. Neither can he influence them in his favor if he dislikes or scorns them. He must neither cringe nor sneer. He must have both self-respect and respect for others.

Herbert Newton Casson Journalist

The worst sorrows in life are not in its losses and misfortunes, but its fears.

A. C. Benson Poet

Shun fear, it is the ague of the soul! a passion man created for himself--for sure that cramp of nature could not dwell in the warm realms of glory.

Aaron Hill Baseball Player
