Salman Rushdie Quotes
I'll Tell You A Secret About Fear: It's An Absolutist. With Fear, It's All Or Nothing. Either, Like Any Bullying Tyrant, It Rules Your Life With Stupid Blinding Omnipotence, Or Else You Overthrow It, And Its Power Vanishes In A Puff Of Smoke. And Another Secret: The Revolution Against Fear, The Engendering Of That Tawdry Despot's Fall, Has More Or Less Nothing To Do With 'courage'. It Is Driven By Something Much More Straightforward: The Simple Need To Get On With Your Life.
