Florence Nightingale
“Fear comes from uncertainty. When we are absolutely certain, whether of our worth or worthlessness, we are almost impervious to fear.”
William Congreve
“Uncertainty and expectation are the joys of life. Security is an insipid thing.”
William Cowper

Edward R. Murrow
“There is a great deal of fear and uncertainty out there. On the one hand it's sad to see peoples' lives disrupted and destroyed. On the other hand, people are worrying about how they are going to pay their gasoline bills and their home heating bills this winter. It makes for a pretty bleak view of the future.”
Ken Mayland
“Uncertainty and fear abound in this market, and thus outright short positions remain highly at risk.”
