@cprevite: It’s “Ad Astra Per Aspera”. This was once the motto of a branch of my father’s family and it means “To the stars through hard work.” My great-grandfather apparently thought about this and decided on this improved version: “Ad Astra Per Aspera.”

Fear is what causes good people to do bad things. We have been controlled by fear far too long. Prejudice is rooted in fear. Knowledge is the enemy of fear. If you face your fears and overcome them, you will have true freedom of mind and spirit.

@gal- Throw a handful of snakes at me, and I run screaming and weeping. I envy both your resolve, and your cobbling skill.

regarding the “Fear”
Fear is Hate looking upwards, Scorn is Hate looking downwards.
I feel the question isn’t so much as a factor in “Fear”, rather, why do we find a portion of a displacement of “Love” so prevalent in our dispositions. “Fear nothing” “Love everything”
Hard to do though.
