To be, or not to be--that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them. To die, to sleep--
No more--and by a sleep to say we end
The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to.
William Shakespeare

There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates people. It is a poison that disintegrates friendships and breaks up pleasant relations. It is a thorn that irritates and hurts; it is a sword that kills.
Buddha

Is too frequently learning to doubt.

I kept on digging the hole deeper and deeper looking for the

Doubt yourself and you doubt everything you see. Judge yourself
and you see judges everywhere. But if you listen to the sound of
your own voice, you can rise above doubt and judgment. And you
can see forever.
