Anxiety Quotations
There are moments when all anxiety and stated toil are becalmed in the infinite leisure and repose of nature.
Henry David Thoreau
The components of anxiety, stress, fear, and anger do not exist independently of you in the world. They simply do not exist in the physical world, even though we talk about them as if they do.
Wayne Dyer
Nothing in the affairs of men is worthy of great anxiety.
Plato
The act of birth is the first experience of anxiety, and thus the source and prototype of the affect of anxiety.
Sigmund Freud
What some call health, if purchased by perpetual anxiety about diet, isn't much better than tedious disease.

Anais Nin
Anxiety is the dizziness of freedom.
