Fearlessness is a fool's boast, to my mind. The only men with no fear in them are dead, or the soon to be dead, maybe.

It is so brief that it is represented by the fleeting of a luminous mote through the thin ray of sunlight - and it is visible but a fraction of a second. The moments that preceded it have been lived, are forgotten and are without value; the moments that have not been lived have no existence and will have no value except in the moment that each shall be lived.
