This quote by Douglas Horton speaks to the power of acting in order to conquer fear. Fear can be incapacitating and can prevent us from doing something about it. Nevertheless, by acting, we can conquer our fear and move on. On the other hand, inactiveness can produce horror. When we stop working to act, we can end up being overwhelmed by fear and anxiety. This can cause a feeling of horror and vulnerability. For that reason, it is essential to take action in order to get rid of worry and progress. Doing something about it can help us to gain control over our fear and ultimately cause a more favorable result.
"Creating the kind of connections between people that lead to collective civic action, political expression, community dialogue, shared cultural experiences"
