Paul Michael Glaser

When we experience our fear, when we say the words 'I am scared,' we have the choice to acknowledge that being scared is not who we are. It is not our identity. And while there is a part of us that is scared, there's also a part of us that isn't scared.

We need our fear in order to find our love. They go together. Yin and Yang.

To be a good doctor, a good researcher, is to be one who can listen, assimilate and diagnose information from without, but can also listen and hear what is being said from within themselves.

When we experience our fear, when we say the words 'I am scared,' we have the choice, the ability to acknowledge that being scared is not who we are. It is not our identity.

We live to commune. We live to create. Our enduring biological and spiritual drive is to create, to live in the act of becoming. It is not a choice. It is our experience of our existence.

We need our fear in order to find our love. They go together.
