Good quotes in the era of manufactured fear...
It is not power that corrupts but fear. Fear of losing power corrupts those who wield it and fear of the scourge of power corrupts those who are subject to it.
- AUNG SAN SUU KYI

No passion so effectually robs the mind of all its powers of acting and reasoning as fear.
- EDMUND BURKE

Fear is the enemy of logic.
- FRANK SINATRA

Fear is the path to the Dark Side. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering.
- YODA

I will show you fear in a handful of dust.
- T.S. ELIOT
