I like normal stuff people fear - like spiders and heights. I'm frightened by the unknown by things that are hard to figure out and get a grip on.

When you say 'fear of the unknown' that is the definition of fear fear is the unknown fear is what you do not know and it's genetically within us so that we feel safe. We feel scared of the woods because we're not familiar with it and that keeps you safe.

People have a fear of the unknown. Insects have different senses than us different amount of limbs and their body structure is very different. It's hard for us to really relate to them and understand them.

A child's fear is a world whose dark corners are quite unknown to grownup people it has its sky and its abysses a sky without stars abysses into which no light can ever penetrate.

If we fear the unknown then surely we fear ourselves.

A fear of the unknown keeps a lot of people from leaving bad situations.

Religion. A daughter of Hope and Fear explaining to Ignorance the nature of the Unknowable.

The one permanent emotion of the inferior man is fear - fear of the unknown the complex the inexplicable. What he wants above everything else is safety.

I'm not unknown yet I'm not super famous where I can't go anywhere.

I want to thank all the women who have worn my clothes the famous and the unknown who have been so faithful to me and given me so much joy.

In the sixties everyone you knew became famous. My flatmate was Terence Stamp. My barber was Vidal Sassoon. David Hockney did the menu in a restaurant I went to. I didn't know anyone unknown who didn't become famous.

If I were dying my last words would be: Have faith and pursue the unknown end.

Faith and doubt both are needed - not as antagonists but working side by side to take us around the unknown curve.

The world is divided into two categories: failures and unknowns.

Failure is a word unknown to me.

By the fourth grade I graduated to an erector set and spent many happy hours constructing devices of unknown purpose where the main design criterion was to maximize the number of moving parts and overall size.

Design is an unknown.

Perhaps we don't need these religious concoctions to pillow the fear of death. Just the fact that there is an unknown and something greater can bring a feeling of peace. That's enough for me.
