The greatest war in our lives is the one against our own fears and illusions. We fight countless battles with our deluded consciousness which sometimes strives for making not the best, but the safest and least risky decisions.

About This Quote

The greatest war in our lives is the one against our own fears and illusions. Part of our struggle is to be able to recognize our own fears and illusions. We can’t fight them directly, but we can try to understand them. I think that Nelson Mandela was saying that it is not enough to have a strong will to overcome our fears, but it is also important to have a deep understanding of why they are there in the first place.
