Life is made of fear. Some people eat fear soup three times a day. Some people eat fear soup all the meals there are. I eat it sometimes. When they bring me fear soup to eat, I try not to eat it, I try to send it back. But sometimes I'm too afraid to and have to eat it anyway. Martin Amis
About This Quote

There is no greater fear than the death of a loved one. It is this fear that often pushes people to do and to become all they can. They make an effort not to let their loved one die and continue on with life as usual. However, even though they want to stop the fear at its source, it keeps pushing them on.

This quote is a powerful reminder that we must fight against our fears and do whatever we can to overcome them. We cannot let the fear of death win over us.
