Phobia Quotes

“You have to allow the fear to be a messenger; to give you information that it's attempting to tell you: that you have a negative belief. You can't be afraid of the fear. You have to recognize it. Allow it to do its job. And therefore once it delivers the information, what it's bringing your attention to [is]: "Hey! hey! knock knock knock! You have this negative belief that is out of alignment that you don't prefer!" Once it brings your attention to that, you can say: "Thank you fear. Thank you for bringing my attention to something I didn't know about within myself, so that now I can deal with it, now that I can let it go. Thank you fear." And as soon as you use fear that way and allow it to be what it is; allow it to do the job it was designed to do, it will not be felt as fear anymore. You will welcome it as a messenger that will alert you to anything within you that's out of alignment. And you will be excited about feeling it. And then it will turn into excitement. That's how you "Allow" with fear.”

“Usually the term phobia refers to the psychological fear of the human mind from something that poses a threat. But when a species starts using the term fear against a biological portion of itself, there is nothing more demeaning than this.”

“Islamophobia may not actually be considered as a medical condition, unlike a medical condition, it is nothing but a primordial disgrace to the character of thinking humanity.”

“The real reason the number of things that are shared via social media every single minute is so astronomical is because, whenever they each do, most users do not share or say something because they believe they have something worth remembering; they do mainly or only because they fear being forgotten.”

“I had to stop him from arresting an old lady who let her dog urinate against the fire hydrant that was in front of Burgerville headquarters. "You'll blow our cover." "But what if there is a fire?" "The fire department will come and put it out," I said. "With what?" "Water," I said. "Not from that hydrant," Monk said. "It's inoperable." "No, it's not," I said. "It can still be used." "There is urine all over it," Monk said. "no fireman would dare touch it, nor would any other human being." "Firefighters run into burning buildings," I said."They aren't going to care about some dog pee on a fire hydrant." "They would if they knew," Monk said. "We should call and warn them. Call Joe right now. He can get the word out faster than we can." "Every fire hydrant in the city has dog pee on it, Mr. Monk. It's how dogs mark their territory. I can guarantee you that every male dog that has passed that hydrant has pissed on it." He looked at me, wide eyed, "No." "It's what dogs do," I said. "The firefighters knows this." Monk swallowed hard. "And they still use the hydrants?" "Of course they do." "They are the bravest men on earth," Monk said solemnly.”

“Some cues -for instance, snakes, spiders, and heights- readily elicit fear in ourselves and other primates. It should not surprise us to discover that we instinctively avoid certain cues that have long been associated with such dangers as falling and dangerous animals.”

“- "لا أحب التعميم أبدا!" قلت له بصراحة، "ولكن، الأمر ليس فوبيا على الإطلاق، المسلم المتدين الذي يحلم بإعادة تأسيس دولة دينية مخيف حقاً، لأنه يمتلك أيديولوجية شمولية، تحاول فرض نفسها وإقصاء الآخر، وسلبه حقه في الحياة والوجود. هؤلاء الأفراد خطرون لأنهم يرون بأنهم يحتكرون الحقيقة، وبأن الآخر مخطيء يستحق العذاب، بل وإن كان الأمر بيد هؤلاء المتدينين سيخيرون الآخر بين إعتناق الدين الإسلامي أو العيش ذليلاً تحت رحمتهم، والخطر الآخر هو أنهم لا يرضون بالتطور، وتحجروا في صراعات الماضي وأحكامه، والحضارة عندهم توسع فقط، بل إن المتدينين يحتقرون النتاج العلمي والأدبي والفني بصورة عامة، وحتى ذلك الذي تم إنتاجه في العصر العباسي، ويرون في ذلك إنحلالا أضعف "الخلافة"، وشيئا لا يستحق الإفتخار به. إنهم يفخرون بالتوسع والقتال فحسب. قد تعتذر الشعوب الأخرى عن جرائمها فيما بعد، بل وتدينها في بعض الأحيان، وتشعر بالخزي مما اقترفه الأسلاف، لكنهم يواصلون تمجيد ما يسمونه بالفتوحات ويسعون لتكرارها، وفرض رؤاهم على العالم بأسره. المسلم المتعصب يكره حضارته نفسها، ويريد قولبتها وفق مفهوم الدين فقط، ويحاول طمس كل التقاليد والموروثات القومية والشعبية القديمة التي تمكنت من النجاة من خلال تأطيرها بإطار إسلامي على مدى قرون. إذا كنا نتحدث عن من يحمل مثل هذه الأفكار، ومن يعتبر الأرض بأسرها ملكاً له، وبأن من حقه غزوها وقتل شعوبها لنشر عقيدته، فنحن لا نتكلم عن فوبيا، بل عن خطرٍ حقيقي يحدق بالعالم.”

“Specific parts of you personality may be angry and are usually easily evoked. because these parts are dissociated, anger remains an emotion that is not integrated for you as a whole person. Even though individuals with dissociative disorder are responsible for their behavior, just like everyone else, regardless of which part may be acting, they may feel little control of these raging parts of themselves. Some dissociative parts may avoid or even be phobic of anger. They may influence you as a whole person to avoid conflict with others at any cost or to avoid setting healthy boundaries out of fear of someone else’s anger; or they may urge you to withdraw from others almost completely.”

“There are laws against peddling dope, there can be laws against peddling race hate. But every man has a right to his own opinion as an American boasts, but race hate is not an opinion, it's a phobia. It isn't a viewpoint, race hate is a disease. In a people's world, the incurable racist has no rights. He must be deprived of influence in a people's government. He must be segregated, as he himself would segregate the colored and semitic peoples. As we now segregate the leprous and the insane.”

“I don't call it queerphobia, just like I don't call it transphobia or Islamophobia. To call anti-queer bigotry or anti-trans hatred or anti-Muslim racism a phobia is to grant that kind of ugliness some measure of validity by implying that there is something to be afraid of. A phobia is a phobia because there is an irrational degree of fear behind it, which presupposes that there is something to fear, and, there, the person with the phobia deserves a degree of compassion and understanding. I don't stand for that. Call it what it is: hate. Hate that leads to and calls for violence. Hate that has consequences for people, for real human beings and their lives.”

“Anti-Islamist Muslims - who wish to live modern lives, unencumbered by burqas, fatwas and violent visions of jihad - are on the defensive and atomized. However eloquent, their individual voices cannot compete with the roar of militant Islam's determination, money (much of it from overseas) and violence. As a result, militant Islam, with its West-phobia and goal of world hegemony, dominates Islam in the West and appears to many to be the only kind of Islam.”
