About This Quote

The human spirit is the greatest thing there is. It can be used to do bad things, but also to overcome fear and do great things. Fear is the only thing that separates us from our ancestors. The fear of experiencing pain or death can be enough to stop us from moving forward.

Fear can be the reason why we quit on our dreams, but it can also be the reason why we try again after failing. Fear has a voice, but it does not have all of the answers.
