Quotations
Worry
Little minds have little worries; big minds have no time for worries.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Worry is interest paid on trouble before it comes due.

news yields different intensities of worries in each person.
-Deep Trivedi
No matter how grave a problem you are stuck in, to resolve it you must know the
difference between 'thinking' and 'worrying'. Reflecting upon it, however complex
a problem may be, it soon gets solved; whereas worrying about the problem,
you are consumed by it.
-Deep Trivedi
I highly recommend worrying. It is much more effective than dieting.
-William Powell
Never worry about your heart till it stops beating.
-E. B. White
Loneliness, insomnia, and change: the fear of these is even worse than the reality.
