“Maybe before you can be fearless, you must be humble. Maybe before you can be courageous, you must surrender. Maybe before you can have pride, you must swallow it. The ego obscures reality just as t6he clouds do the sun. Maybe that’s why intelligent people seem more prone to phobias. It’s not because they’re smarter, it’s because they feel more self-important. Conceit is what worry and fear feed on.”
