We are defined by things we fear. But fear is in the mind. Like pain it can be controlled. If I can face my fear it cannot master me.... I am free because you [humans] fear it."
Hi Veronika,

I did take notes and quotes a few times. I'll have to find those and post them.

My daughters read and watch sci fi - especially from a generation or two past, and it is interesting how often fear dominates the scenarios. Here are a few examples:
