About This Quote
This quote comes from the movie, "A Beautiful Mind," and it's talking about fear. Fear is a powerful thing. It can really take over your life and rule you. The thing that keeps us from being controlled by fear is our approach.
Fear is a constant, but our approach to it is what makes the difference. The things we fear are not unbeatable because we can beat them with courage and determination.
