FEAR IS lack of faith. Lack of faith is ignorance. Fear can only be cured by vision. Give the world eyes. It will see. Give the world ears. It will hear. Give it a right arm. It will act. Man needs time and room. Man needs soil, rain and sunshine. Needs a chance. Open all your doors and windows. Let everything pass freely in and out, out and in. Even the evil. Let it pass out and in, in and out. No man hates the truth. But most men are afraid of the truth. Make the truth easier than a lie. Make the truth welcomer than its counterfeits. Then man will no longer be afraid; being afraid is being ignorant. Being ignorant is being without faith.
