Quote by Terry Pratchett

Even our fears make us feel important, because we fear we mi

Summary

This quote suggests that our fears have a way of validating our own sense of importance. When we fear something, it indicates that we attach significance to it and are deeply concerned about its impact on us. It implies that we fear not being regarded as important or significant, and this fear itself reinforces our own sense of self-importance. Ultimately, even though fear may be a negative emotion, it can paradoxically contribute to our feelings of importance and significance within our own lives.
