This document contains quotes about fear from various authors. Ralph Waldo Emerson states that fear defeats more people than any other factor. Tagore advocates facing dangers fearlessly rather than praying for protection. Judy Blume says how we handle our fears will shape our lives, and we must confront our fears to experience adventure rather than be limited by them. Steven Pressfield notes the battle against fear must be fought daily. Dale Carnegie says action breeds confidence while inaction breeds doubt and fear, so we must take action to overcome fear. Ralph Waldo Emerson again says those who do not conquer some fear daily have not learned life's secret.
