Fear Quote by Karen Marie Moning
““A sidhe-seer without hope, without an unshakable determination to survive, is a dead sidhe-seer. A sidhe-seer who believes herself outgunned, outmanned, may as well point that doubt straight at her temple, pull the trigger, and blow her own brains out with it. There are really only two positions one can take toward anything in life: hope or fear. Hope strengthens, fear kills.””

![“Hope strengthens. Fear kills[...] That simple adage is master of every situation, every choice. Each morning we wake up, we get to choose between hope and fear and apply one of those emotions to everything we do. Do we greet things that come our way with joy? Or suspicion?” quote by Karen Marie Moning](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/3fe/karen-marie-moning-189_adages_hope-strengthens-fear-kills-that-simple_795560.jpg)
