Not Afraid Quotes - Page 18

• Maybe your country is only a place you make up in your own mind. Something you dream about and sing about. Maybe it's not a place on the map at all, but just a story full of people you meet and places you visit, full of books and films you've been to. I'm not afraid of being homesick and having no language to live in. I don't have to be like anyone else. I'm walking on the wall and nobody can stop me.

• Be not afraid, though every stay
  Should fail, or be removed away,
  And thou be stript of all;
  But lose thyself in that vast sea,
  The ocean of the Deity,
  And all they cares shall fall.
  
  In death which is the most profound,
  The purest life is always found;
  Then, blindly, all forego!
  He ne're shall find, who will not lose;
  Who sinks from self, shall gain repose,
  Which none but he can know.

  Gerhard Tersteegen
