I always suspect I should avoid these… but oh well here goes;

Post between 5 and 10 quotes which give you strength. They can be from songs, films, plays, tv shows, poems, books, whatever. Just those things that run through your head when you are really finding life a struggle, which get you through it.

1.
I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.

– Bene Gesserit; Litany Against Fear from Dune

‘If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
…
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And–which is more–you’ll be a Man, my son!’

-Rudyard Kipling; If
