"I Must Not Fear..."

Bluefeather was reading Frank Herbert's "Dune" for the last couple of days. Every now and then he would share a passage or two with me... Among many of them, there were these two: "I must not fear. Fear is the mind killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." *** "Any road followed precisely to its end leads precisely nowhere. Climb the mountain just a little bit to test that it’s a mountain. From the top of the mountain, you cannot see the mountain."
