I think I’ve heard that about FEAR once before…famous guy sad it about 75-80 years ago…now who was that😳?

Take your pick...I'm partial to what the Duke said.....

FDR: "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." Inaugural address, 1933. *He was talking about the Great Depression. Most people now think he was talking about WWII, though.

Winston Churchill: β€œFear is a reaction. Courage is a decision."

Benjamin Franklin: β€œThose who are fear’d, are hated.”

John Wayne: β€œCourage is being scared to death and saddling up anyway." (I'm not sure what Marion Morrison would have said.)

If you're thinking about 1984, the book was completed in 1948. Apparently the publisher suggested the inversion of 48 for the date of the book, but there is some doubt about this story.

Bottom line: we have no control over when we die. It has been determined by a power much greater than us. When it is our time, we will leave this little, revolving ball of dirt.
