Quote by Bryant H. McGill

If we fear the unknown then surely we fear ourselves.

If we fear the unknown then surely we fear ourselves.

Summary

This quote suggests that our fear of the unknown is ultimately a reflection of our fear of our own inner selves. When we encounter something unfamiliar or uncertain, it forces us to confront our own fears, insecurities, and uncertainties within. This fear of the unknown is often rooted in the fear of the potential outcomes, the unexpected consequences, or the realization of our own limitations and vulnerabilities. By acknowledging and understanding this fear, we can explore and embrace the unknown, ultimately discovering more about ourselves in the process.
