About This Quote
People hate what they know and fear what they don't. If you know something, you dislike it. If you don’t know something, you fear it. We all have fears, so to speak.
But we can fight them. The key is to recognize them and to understand them. Further, we must acknowledge our fears and then do everything in our power to dispel them.
