Your Face Tomorrow: Dance and Dream - pg. 48

'Fear is the greatest force that exists, as long as you can adapt to it and feel at home and live on good terms ith it, and not waste energy battling to ward it off. Because you can never entirely in that battle; even in moments of apparent victory, you're already anticipating its return, you live under constant threat, and then you become paralyssed, and fear immediately takes advantage of thhat. If, on the other hand, you accept fear (that is, if you adjust to it, if you get used to it being there), that gives you incomparable strength and you can then take advantage of that strength and use it. Its possibilities are infinite, far greater than those inherent in hatred, ambition, unconditionality, love, the desire for revenge; they're all unknown quantities.
