At the root of the shy temperament is a deep fear of social judgment, one so severe it can sometimes be crippling.

What people fear most about tragedy is its randomness - a taxi cab jumps the curb and hits a pedestrian, a gun misfires and kills a bystander.

Americans need never fear their government because of the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation.

Today it is not big business that we have to fear. It is big government.

Fear controls you.

If you have stage fright, it never goes away. But then I wonder: is the key to that magical performance because of the fear?

For me it is important to be in balance. To not let fear get in the way of things, to not worry so much about protecting yourself all the time.
