"There seems to be no lengths to which humorless people will not go to analyze humor. It seems to worry them."

"Life is difficult for everyone; everyone has bad days. Everyone has trouble in their life, because it doesn't matter how rich you are: Sickness and trouble and worry and love, these things will mess with you at every level of life."

"Whatever is going to happen will happen, whether we worry or not."

"Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present."

"If a problem is fixable, if a situation is such that you can do something about it, then there is no need to worry. If it's not fixable, then there is no help in worrying. There is no benefit in worrying whatsoever."

"How can a person deal with anxiety? You might try what one fellow did. He worried so much that he decided to hire someone to do his worrying for him. He found a man who agreed to be his hired worrier for a salary of $200,000 per year. After the man accepted the job, his first question to his boss was, "Where are you going to get $200,000 per year?"To which the man responded, "That's your worry."

"Raising children is an uncertain thing; success is reached only after a life of battle and worry."

"Life is too short to worry about anything. You had better enjoy it because the next day promises nothing."

"Never worry alone. When anxiety grabs my mind, it is self-perpetuating. Worrisome thoughts reproduce faster than rabbits, so one of the most powerful ways to stop the spiral of worry is simply to disclose my worry to a friend... The simple act of reassurance from another human being [becomes] a tool of the Spirit to cast out fear -- because peace and fear are both contagious."

"Sometimes I worry about being a success in a mediocre world."

"We tend to be preoccupied by our problems when we have a heightened sense of vulnerability and a diminished sense of power. Today, see each problem as an invitation to prayer."

"Success is having to worry about every damn thing in the world, except money."

"Oh Julie, wouldn’t I know if you were dead? Wouldn’t I feel it happening, like a jolt of electricity to my heart?"

"Let me assure you that my intent is not to offend or merely be provocative. I'm simply worried."

"What will be left of all the fearing and wanting associated with your problematic life situation that every day takes up most of your attention? A dash, one or two inches long, between the date of birth and date of death on your gravestone."

"Only 8% of our worry will come to pass. 92% of our worry is wasted. DON'T PANIC"

"Pray, hope, and don't worry. Worry is useless. God is merciful and will hear your prayer."

"Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, Faith looks up"
