Quote by Samuel Butler

Fear is static that prevents me from hearing myself.

Fear is static that prevents me from hearing myself.

Summary

This quote expresses the idea that fear acts as a static noise or interference that hinders one's ability to truly listen to one's own thoughts, desires, and intuition. When consumed by fear, one becomes mentally occupied with worries, anxieties, and potential negative outcomes, making it difficult to connect with one's inner self and understand their own needs and true potential. By acknowledging and overcoming fear, one can remove this static and create space for self-reflection, growth, and personal discovery.

He may be a very nice man. But I haven't got the time to figure that out. All I know is, he's got a uniform and a gun and I have to relate to him that way. That's the only way to relate to him because one of us may have to die.
