Worry not about the possible troubles
of the future; for if they come, you are
but anticipating and adding to their weight;
and if they do not come, your worry is useless;
and in either case it is weak and in vain,
and a distrust of God's providence.
?Hugh Blair
Worry does not empty tomorrow of its
sorrow; it empties today of its strength.

you save them from drowning and
put them on a bank to dry in the sun with
hot chocolate and muffins they wonder
whether they are catching cold.

Worry a little bit every day and in a lifetime
you will lose a couple of years. If

never fixes anything.
?Mary Hemingway

Concern should drive us into action
and not into a depression. No man is
free who cannot control himself.
?Pythagoras
Fear nothing but what thy industry may prevent;
be confident of nothing but what fortune cannot
defeat; it is no less folly to fear what is impossible
to be avoided than to be secure
when there is a possibility to be deprived.
?Francis Quarles
Worry is a thin stream of fear trickling through
the mind. If encouraged, it cuts a channel into
which all other thoughts are drained.

It ain't no use putting up
your umbrella till it rains.
