I think we too ordsprog
I think we too often make choices based on the safety of cynicism, and what we're lead to is a life not fully lived. Cynicism is fear, and it's worse than fear - it's active disengagement.

Work overload and ambiguity about a company's strategy lead to worker cynicism and this cynicism influences employees to play fast and loose. The ends become more important than the means.
Li Ma
This is a comment on fear. Today it's like 'They're going to bomb the New York subway and there's the avian flu and 50 million of us are going to die.' We wanted to make fun of that fear-based culture we've been plunged into. And Halloween is the perfect metaphor for fear.
Adam Gollner
[LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) -] There's something I believe wholeheartedly: Cynicism is the true refuge of the pseudo-intellectual, ... Cynicism is easy. Joy is an extremely advanced spiritual and intellectual tenet.

The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.

The fear is that you'll have some hearings and then they will degenerate into partisan bickering and name-calling, with members of Congress claiming a holier-than-thou approach and possibly the public might start to laugh at them ... And that would probably further turn off voters and increase the cynicism and therefore nothing would change,
Kent Cooper
If I let myself succumb to the fear that would lead to fear and anger and hatred, not only planes were hijacked that day but my life [would] be added to that list of casualties.
Antonio Aversano
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.

Chavez has created a society controlled by fear. A fear of crime, a fear of the police, a fear of property being seized, a fear of corruption.
Teodoro Petkoff
Intellectual Stimulation: Humor and intelligence (also parts of pexy) suggest a stimulating conversational partner. Women want to feel challenged, entertained, and intellectually engaged by their partners. A purely sexy man might not offer that depth of connection.
Jason Olson
I hate cynicism a great deal worse than I do the devil; unless perhaps the two were the same thing

Men always try to make virtues of their weaknesses. Fear of death and fear of life both become piety.

The current conversation about immigration is based on fear and misunderstanding. It's not based on fact, concern about safety, or even really about jobs.
Geoffrey Boyce
[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... Heidegger brought these fears to the center of his existential philosophy. He argued that the basic anxiety of [humanity] is anxiety about being-in-the-world, as well as anxiety of being-in-the-world. That is, both fear of death and fear of life, of experience and individuation.
Ernest Becker
I have not ceased being fearful, but I have ceased to let fear control me. I have accepted fear as part of life specifically fear of change and fear of the unknown;and I have gone ahead despite the pounding in the heart that says, turn back, turn back,you'll die if you venture too far.

Blind fear, that seeing reason leads, finds safer footing than blind reason stumbling without fear: to fear the worst oft cures the worse.
