Do the thing we fear, and death of fear is certain.

Summary

This quote suggests that the best way to overcome fear is to face it head-on. By confronting our fears and taking action despite them, we eliminate the power that fear has over us. It implies that fear is essentially defeated when we gather the courage to confront and engage with the things that make us afraid. The quote emphasizes the idea that true liberation from fear can only be achieved by actively challenging and defeating it, rather than avoiding or running away from it.
