"The only thing there is to fear is fear itself," Franklin Roosevelt

But we do fear. even though we shouldn't, that what happens just happens and that there is nothing that we can do about it. We fear death, even though it is inevitable. We fear hurricanes, even though we live in the middle of the desert. We fear other countries, even though they are on the other side of the earth.

Fears are un-rational.

This fact does not stop us from being scared. Scared of Ferocious evil animated robots. Scared of Flying extraterrestrials among royalty, or any other senseless things that obviously don't exist (which means we don't have proof).

Fear is what forces armies to turn and surrender

Fear is what makes people take the path of least resistance

Fear is what makes us wait to act

Fear is what tears down civilization. It's what turns a good and civilized person into a ravenous beast, clawing its way to the top of the food chain of life.
