“No conocerás el miedo. El miedo mata la mente. El miedo es la pequeña muerte que conduce a la destrucción total. Afrontaré mi miedo. Permitiré que pase sobre mí y a través de mí.

Shai-hulud shall thou see;

What we seek for shall be found
In the land of solid ground.”

And the price we paid was the price men have always paid for achieving a paradise in this life—we went soft, we lost our edge.”
