  Jim Morrison

en How strange this fear of death is! We are never frightened at a sunset.
  George MacDonald

en I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear... And when it is gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear is gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
  Frank Herbert

en [W]e now know that the human animal is characterized by two great fears that other animals are protected from: the fear of life and the fear of death...

That is, both fear of death and fear of life, of experience and individuation.

en "Dread is the first and strongest of the...kinds of fear. It is that tension, that waiting that comes when you know there is something to fear but you have not yet identified what it is. The fear that comes when you first realize that your spouse should have been home hours ago; when you hear a strange sound in the baby's bedroom; when you realize that a window you are sure you closed is now open, the curtains billowing, and you're alone in the house.
  Orson Scott Card

And what is this but that shameful ignorance of thinking that we know what we do not know?
  Socrates
