Quote by Iain Reid

“Credo che la paura, il terrore e lo spavento siano percepiti di solito come stati passeggeri. Emozioni fulminee e fortissime, che però non durano. Non è vero. La paura non passa a meno che non sia rimpiazzata da qualcos’altro. Se può, la paura vera resta e si amplifica. Non puoi uscirne vincitore, pensare di essere più intelligente e fartela passare. Se non curata, la paura ti infetta. Sì, la paura è un’infezione.”

'Unless' Ralph moved restlessly. 'Unless what?' 'Unless we get frightened of people.”

“There's somethin I learned when I was homeless: Our limitation is God's opportunity. When you get all the way to the end of your rope and there ain't nothin you can do, that's when God takes over. I remember one time I was hunkered down in the hobo jungle with some folks. We was talkin 'bout life, and this fella was talkin, said, 'People think they're in control, but they ain't. The truth is, that which must befall thee must befall thee. And that which must pass the by must pass thee by.”
