Fear needn’t be grounded in fact to cause problems.

Gibbon's Decline & Fall (1996)

Fear and superstition always follow the unseen, the unknown, the whispered of.

The Margarets (2007)

She was trying to feel philosophical about dying, not managing it, trying not to be frightened, and not managing that, either.

Grass (1989)

“You would advise us not to worry?”
“Oh, worry by all means,” said Windlow. “By all means. Yes. It sharpens the wits. A good worry does wonders for the defensive capabilities of the brain. However, I should not advise you to do without sleep.”

King's Blood Four (1983)
