We have to start teaching ourselves not to be afraid.

William Faulkner
Fear, Teaching, Learning

A writer must teach himself that the basest of all things is to be afraid.

William Faulkner
Teaching, Writing, Love And Honor
Nobel Prize acceptance speech, Stockholm, 10 Dec. 1950

He [the writer] must, teach himself that the basest of all things is to be afraid; and, teaching himself that, forget it forever, leaving no room in his workshop for anything but the old verities and truths of the heart, the old universal truths lacking which any story is ephemeral and doomed - love and honor and pity and compassion and sacrifice.
