Tim O'Brien Quotes
It Is Easy, Of Course, To Fear Happiness. There Is Often Complacency In The Acceptance Of Misery. We Fear Parting From Our Familiar Roles. We Fear The Consequences Of Such A Parting. We Fear Happiness Because We Fear Failure. But We Must Overcome These Fears. We Must Be Brave. It Is One Thing To Speculate About What Might Be. It Is Quite Another To Act In Behalf Of Our Dreams, To Treat Them As Objectives That Are Achievable And Worth Achieving. It Is One Thing To Run From Unhappiness; It Is Another To Take Action To Realize Those Qualities Of Dignity And Well-being That Are The True Standards Of The Human Spirit.
