Today we seem animated almost exclusively by fear. We fear even that which is good, that which is health, that which is joyous. And what is the hero? Primarily one who has conquered his fears. One can be a hero in any realm; we never fail to recognize him when he appears. His singular virtue is that he has become one with life, one with himself. Having ceased to doubt and question, he quickens the flow and rhythm of life.—Henry Miller, The World of Sex
